I think you can try...


getting the good disk into the spareset, then changing the polict on the unit to something other then "none" like Best_Fit or Best_Performance.

Once you set the policy, the unit should see that it is in a reduced state, check for spare drives, find one and start rebuilding.

Can you post the additional information Uwe asks for? "Show DISK51000"

Or better yet, can you capture a few commands and attach them to a post...


show disks
show failed
show spare
show R0
show D1 (assuming d1 is your unit designation)

when i set policy for r0 to best fit or best performance with add disk51000 for sparesets, it does not reconstruct.

my disks in r0 4*18.2 gbyte wide ultra 3 10k
when adding disk with 36.4 to sparesets, the reconstruction done.and when add disk18.2 gbyte it does not reconstruct R0 and still reduced

You can try to initialize the replacement disk before you try to put it into the Raidset:

> initialize DISK51000

Else, I am afraid I have to repeat:
show the details about this disk and post it as a .TXT file attachment.

[hany salim]

i uesed init disk51000
befor adding to sparests or replace for R0

Do you get any additional error messages? I would connect a session to each of both controller's maintanance ports, because messages are not replicated between controllers.

Try running the command on the other controller.
