P410: How can I add disk to this array?

Hi!
Look at screenshot please.
Raid1 with one failed drive. It was replaced, but new disk not in an array.
I cant add this drive as spare or something, evei if I boot from smartstart CD.

What can I do to get healthy array with all my data?

You have to remove the failed drive and put the new drive in its place.

Why does it show the failed drive in "box 0" and the unassigned drive in "box 1"?

Did you physically remove the failed drive and put the new drive in the same bay?

Which server is this on?

Yes, I do. But this drive work some time in other server while my own was unavailable due to power supply fail.

Run a backup of your server if you have not done yet.

Have you rebooted this server? Try rebooting and see if the rebuild will start.

If the rebuilt does not start after rebooting, try the manual rebuild on page 6 (start with step 5) of

Do you read this manual?

"5. Restart the operating system with the remaining half of the drives that were created by the mirror."

I already have one disk on an array, I cant half it obviously.
And new disk wont be added to array.

Vladimir, if it is not an HP HDD, you might not bring it to work.

Do you have another HDD that is HP branded and can be tested on the system?
