As I don't know your unit policy, you can use this:

>show failed

check the name of the failed disk

>delete failed diskXXX

remove the disk

Insert the new disk

>run config

> add spareset diskXXX

If you can access the CLI (serial connection), post output from:

show units
show failed
show disks
show raid
show spare

If you have a spare disk, it probably already recovered to the spare disk. Now you have to replace the dead disk, and make that your new hot spare. Alternatively, you can force a "fail back", so the original disk will be live, and your spare will go back to being a hot spare.
