After that the hard disk is replaced and the disk carrier with the new
disk has to be reassembled in the system.
Step 3: Reassembling the Hard Disk
After replacing the hard disk, the new disk carrier with the hard disk has
to be reassembled in the system. For this perform the following:
Slide the disk carrier back into its shaft at the disk array.
Push the disk carrier completely back into the shaft by applying
pressure to the disk carrier directly. Move it until you feel the resis-
tance of the hard disk interface inside the system.
As the last step, push the lever and the disk carrier at the same time
with caution but with raised force into the system. When the lever
snaps back in place, the carrier and the hard disk should be
mounted correctly in the DVS system.
Once the faceplate of the DVS system is back in place, the replacement
of the hard disk is finished. After several minutes the replaced hard disk
will be automatically recognized by the system. Then the rebuild of the
data will be initiated on its own. When the system has finished the re-
build, the DVS system will be fully operational again.
The disk carrier of the replaced disk should be level with the
others of the array.
If required, you can lock the disk carrier with the hex key
again.
During a rebuild real-time processes may not be possible. It is
recommended to restrict accesses to the hard disk array until
the rebuild is finished.
A rebuild takes several hours. It is strongly recommended to
avoid accesses to the disk array during this time, otherwise it
may take considerably longer.
