Replacing Disks in VA7100
I know there's a way to mark the disk down through commandview, should I do this first, then replace it and wait on a rebuild - OR - should I just go up, pull the old disk out, put the new one in and wait on the rebuild. Here's what I think the proper procedure might be, let me know where I'm wrong.
1) Down the disk using command view.
2) Remove the old disk.
3) Wait on Array to rebuild.
4) After Rebuild insert new larger disk.
5) Wait on array to rebuild.
Repeat steps 1-5 as neccessary.
thanks,
c

Re: Replacing Disks in VA7100
a) check if VA is ok ('armdsp -a');
b) backup all data;
c) check if VA has firmware HP18 and battery firmware 4.3. If not, call HP and schedule update.
If you wish you can attach armpds -a output to your next reply

Re: Replacing Disks in VA7100
You can do what you suggest, but timing is important, and if you remove a drive before the rebuild completes, you can trash the parity group. So it's error-prone, which makes me nervous.
Good luck,
Vince
