9.1.2 Replace after Clone
Data on the source drive, the drive with predicted errors (or any
selected member drive), will be cloned to a standby spare and
replaced later by the spare. The status of the replaced drive, the
original member drive with predicted errors, will be redefined as a
“used drive.” System administrators may replace the “used drive”
with a new one, and then configure the new drive as a spare drive.
Locate the logical drive to which the drive with predictable errors
belongs. Select the “Clone Failing Drive” function.
Select “Replace After Clone.” The controller will automatically start
the cloning process using the existing “stand-by” (dedicated/global
spare drive) to clone the source drive (the target member drive with
predicted errors). If there is no standby drive (local/global spare
drive), you need to add a new drive and configure it as a standby
drive.
