I have the following message spooling to the console of my K200. This machine is no longer under HP hardware maintenance.
Data redundancy has been lost in disk array on /dev/dsk/C4t0d0. Disk in slot B4 has failed.
Active hot spare warning on /dev/rdsk/C4t0d0. Unallocated space is too small for active hot spare.
The rebuild is currently at 62%. The array has 7 18.2 GB disks.
Once I get the new disk from my vendor, how should I proceed to replace it? Is it really hot-swapable? Is it actually hands-off? I am new to this particular crisis, so I appreciate your responses very much.
Thank you,
Solved! Go to Solution.

Yes, it's really hot swappable. Pull out the failed drive in slot B4 and insert the new one. That's all there is to it.

Solution# arraydsp -i
==> take note of the serial number of the array
# arraydsp -a
==> Look for the line "Overall State of Array".
Since you have time .. can you post the output of .. arraydsp -a

In most cases, it's just pop the disk in and walk away. DO NOT REPLACE ANOTHER DISK until the rebuiild is finished.

Re: Replace disk in array 12H - Urgent.
I don't think, from the message, that the rebuild will complete: "Unallocated space is too small for active hot spare."
I would think that the disk needs to be replace before the rebuild can continue.

Re: Replace disk in array 12H - Urgent.
They have a little tab on the bottom, you simply pull and the dead drive is out. Insert new drive. You get an lbolt, you are done.
The reall issue is making sure you get the RIGHT drive. Be sure.

Re: Replace disk in array 12H - Urgent.
The replacement disk will most likely be used, although I am not sure. Is there a difference in procedure whether new/used?
I have attached the results of the arraydsp -a.
Thank you,
Robb

Re: Replace disk in array 12H - Urgent.
From your attachment we can see that the rebuild is now 89% complete. You should wait for the rebuild to complete, then simply replace the drive. At that point, we will find out whether "auto include" is enabled or not. If it is, you're all set - if not, you'll need to include it manually via the panel.

Re: Replace disk in array 12H - Urgent.
Press Menu, then "+" until you see "Disk Changes" and then press Enter. Somewhere in there there should be an option that says "Include Disk", choose that one to perform the include operation of this disk into the array.
See this my reply in this thread ..
http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,,0x24199607df6ed711abdc0090277a778c,00.html
From your arraydsp -a output, the line ..
Used by non-included disks = 17366 MB
which represent the size of a single disk confirms that one of the disk is not functioning. In a normal 12H this line should say 0 MB. After you plug in the new disk, run arraydsp -a again and you should see that change plus the active hot spare space should come back (since hot spare is enabled) .. form the line ..
Active Hot Spare Desired = ENABLED
Later on you may want to followup on this thread and re-post arraydsp -a just to make sure. Just a suggestion ..
