Configuration Procedures 5–23
Adding Disk Drives
If you add new disk drives to the subsystem, the disk drives must be added to the
controllers’ list of known devices:
■ To add one new disk drive to the list of known devices, use the following syntax:
ADD DISK DISKNNNNN P T L
■
To add several new disk drives to the list of known devices, enter the following
command:
RUN CONFIG
Adding a Disk Drive to the Spareset
The spareset is a collection of spare disk drives that are available to the controller should it
need to replace a failed member of a RAIDset or mirrorset.
NOTE: This procedure assumes that the disks that you are adding to the spareset have already
been added to the controller's list of known devices.
To add the disk drive to the controller's spareset list, use the following syntax:
ADD SPARESET DISKNNNNN
Repeat this step for each disk drive you want to add to the spareset:
For example:
The following example shows the syntax for adding DISK11300 and DISK21300 to the
spareset.
ADD SPARESET DISK11300
ADD SPARESET DISK21300
Removing a Disk Drive from the Spareset
You can delete disks in the spareset if you need to use them elsewhere in your subsystem.
1. Show the contents of the spareset entering the following command:
SHOW SPARESET
2. Delete the desired disk drive entering the following command:
DELETE SPARESET DISKNNNNN
