Hallo,
after I replaced a failed disk in the P2000 G3, I'm not able to defined the new disk a spare. Everytime I try to assign the disk a spare (select vdisk use manu Configuration > Manage Dedicated Spares) the procedure finished successfully (Message text: The vdisk spare settings were modified successfully.) and the disk is shown as "Spare".
But a few seconds later, the status if teh disk reverts back to AVAIL.
This is the same if I perform this action with the cli command (set spares disks 2.25 vdisk VDISK_D)
Attached you find the Event Log.
Any suggestions?
I do not see anything wrong.
kind regards Bernd

Re: P2000 G3: adding a new disk as spare fails
Bernd ,
From the screen shot and details shared. I see that you have configured disk 2:25 as dedicated spare. Further events reports there are no spares and the disk 2:25 has failed.
Please let me know if you have tried using another hard drive , configuring as Dedicated spare and is the issue same. Also , please share the MSA firmware details.

Re: P2000 G3: adding a new disk as spare fails
Hello Bernd,
I have seen this type of behavior before where you add a new drive in as a spare, the spare gets assigned to the Vdisk, reconstruction starts, and then the spare fails. If your drive is actually a new drive that is not a bad drive, then your problem could be at the vdisk level. Without a full log review this will be difficult to troubleshoot in a forum.
There is a possibility that the vdisk has an internal RAID level error. During the reconstruction the raid error is encountered which results in the new (spare) drive getting failed out. If you have access to the vdisk I suggest an immediate backup. Verify the data in the backup and then look towards other options. You can open a support case and have them review the logs to determine further recovery efforts. There is likely another drive(s) that is also bad which is preventing your reconstruction from being successful.
You will need to gather a fresh set of store.logs, then please open a support case with HPE Support using the following web link, if the unit is under warranty: https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home
If the unit is out of warranty, you can open a chat support case with HPE using the following web link to check for options: https://pg-receiver-pro.glb.itcs.hpe.com/WCLWeb/WCLEntry.aspx
Cheers,
Shawn
