Troubleshooting Working with a Failed Array The RAID Configuration page appears. A STEP 4 Available disk drives appear in the listing. Click Add to add the disk drive to the array. The RAID array is rebuilt for the added or changed redundant disk drive. While the rebuild continues, the array can still be used. After the rebuild process completes, the disk becomes part of the redundant storage. You can monitor the progress of the rebuild through the System Status page. 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 that you do a safe reboot using the Reboot function. See "Rebooting or Shutting Down the NSS" on page 127. STEP 3 When the system reboots, log back into the configuration interface.
