5.2.6 Create Hot Spare
The Create Hot Spare option gives you the ability to define a global hot spare.
When you choose the Create Hot Spare option in the Raid Set Function, all
unused (non Raid Set member) disk drives in the subsystem appear. Select the
target disk drive by clicking on the appropriate check box. Tick on the Confirm The
Operation and click on the Submit button to create hot spare drive(s).
NOTE: The capacity of the hot spare disk(s) must be equal to or
greater than the smallest hard disk size in the subsystem so that
it/they can replace any failed disk drive.
