If you want to configure dedicated spare then follow below process,

To change a vdisk’s spares
1. In the Configuration View panel, right-click a vdisk and select Configuration > Manage Dedicated Spares. The main panel shows information about the selected vdisk, its spares, and all disks in the system. Existing spares are labeled SPARE.
• In the Disk Sets table, the number of white slots in the SPARE entry’s Disks field shows how many spares you can add to the vdisk.
• In the enclosure view or list, only existing spares and suitable available disks are selectable.
2. Select spares to remove, disks to add as spares, or both.
3. Click Modify Spares. If the task succeeds, the panel is updated to show which disks are now spares for the vdisk.

If you want to configure Global SPare then follow below process,

To change the system’s global spares
1. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select Provisioning > Manage Global Spares. The main panel shows information about available disks in the system. Existing spares are labeled GLOBAL SP.
• In the Disk Sets table, the number of white slots in the Disks field shows how many spares you can add.
• In the enclosure view or list, only existing global spares and suitable available disks are selectable.
2. Select spares to remove, disks to add as spares, or both.
