Assigns the slot corresponding to the hot
spare drive as persistent. Any drive in the slot
functions as a hot spare if the drive is qualified
to be a hot spare.
Example:
A:>raidcfg -ctrl -ac=ephs -c=2
RAIDCFG Command successful!
--ctrl -c=id -

NA NA
Disables the persistent slot corresponding to
the hot spare drive. If the drive is removed
from the slot and any drive is inserted, the slot
stops functioning as a hot spare. You must
manually assign the drive as a hot spare
again.
Example:
A:>raidcfg -ctrl -ac=dphs -c=2
RAIDCFG Command successful!
