MSA1500 Disk failure

If a disk failure take place, the msa1500 rebuild on the hot spare. But how does the msa work if you replace the failed disk? Will it rebuild again on the new disk? Or do i need to make the replaced disk the new hotspare?

thanks

Re: MSA1500 Disk failure

Hi,
When there is a disk failure,
a) wait for the rebuilt to the spare drive first
b) after the rebuilt completion replace the failed drive
c) the system will automaticaly rebuild the replacement hard drive and reset the spare HDD to an available state
the pain is one part of the reality
