Troubleshooting Working with a Failed Array A Working with a Failed Array If a RAID is in a failed state, the data on the array is not recoverable. You need to delete the array, replace the disk drive, and then configure a new array. To create an array when an array fails: STEP 1 Remove the failed drive from the NSS and install the replacement disk. (This step can be done out of order as long as it is installed before you configure the new array.) STEP 2 Reboot the NSS. Make sure you do a safe reboot using the Reboot function from the System Details page. See "Rebooting or Shutting Down the NSS" section on page 121. STEP 3 When the system reboots, log back into the configuration interface. STEP 4 From the Manager Menu, click Storage RAID. The RAID page appears. The failed array appears with a status of "Stopped". STEP 5 Click Delete. The disk drives used in the failed array become part of the available storage. STEP 6 Create a new array as required. Once built, you can set up the volumes, shares, and quotas for the array. If the failed array contained the volume used as the Home Directory Location, set the location to the volume you want to use.

A
Working with a Failed Array
If a RAID is in a failed state, the data on the array is not recoverable. You need to
delete the array, replace the disk drive, and then configure a new array.
To create an array when an array fails:
STEP 1
Remove the failed drive from the NSS and install the replacement disk. (This step
can be done out of order as long as it is installed before you configure the new
array.)
STEP 2
Reboot the NSS. Make sure you do a safe reboot using the Reboot function from
the
System Details
page. See
”Rebooting or Shutting Down the NSS” section on
page121
.
STEP 3
When the system reboots, log back into the configuration interface.
STEP 4
From the
Manager Menu
, click
Storage
¨
RAID.
The
RAID
page appears. The failed array appears with a status of "Stopped".
STEP 5
Click
Delete
.
The disk drives used in the failed array become part of the available storage.
STEP 6
Create a new array as required.
Once built, you can set up the volumes, shares, and quotas for the array. If the
failed array contained the volume used as the
Home Directory Location
, set the
location to the volume you want to use.
