transit -a resume -d <DaId> -s <SeqNo>
Summary
The transit command starts, stops, pauses, and resumes a transition and
monitors the progress of a running transition.
Transition is an operation to replace a revertible spare drive currently used in a
disk array with an new physical drive, so the reveritible spare can be restored to
spare drive status. The destination drive can be an unconfigured drive, a non-
revertible global spare, or a non-revertible spare dedicated to the array.
During transition, the data on the revertible spare is transferred to the destination
drive while the disk array remains online. After transition, the destination drive
becomes the part of the array and the revertible spare is a spared drive once
again.
Note that the destination drive must be the same media type, HDD or SSD, as
the other physical drives in the disk array.
Options
-a <action> Specifies the action to perform.
list (Default) Displays the running and paused transitions
and their status.
start Starts a manual transition.
stop Stops a transition.
pause Pauses a transition.
resume Resumes a paused transition.
-d <DA ID> Specifies the id of disk array which contains the revertible
spare drive.
-s <sequence Num> Specifies the sequence number of the revertible spare
drive in the array.
-p <PD ID> Specifies the physical drive ID of the destination drive.
