Can I replace the drive on-line or do I need to down the server, replace the drive and let the array rebuild on boot up?

SolutionThough I have never done it in Netware, I replace drives all the time. Just hot swap them. The drive should automatically start rebuilding. You can tell it is rebuilding by the little blinking green arrow. When it stops, it is finished and you should get a status message.
If you wanted to be on the safe side, you sould down the server to the bear minimum and swap the drive then.
I'd probably do a quick backup too just to cover your butt some.

Re: Replacing Failed Drive in ML 370 G3
you can replace drive online and SmartArray will start rebuild.
It is good idea to update Proliant support pack
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/24535.html
and server/SmartArray firmware
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/locate/32_4307.html
from time to time, but do it only after SmartArray will complete RAID-5 rebuild.
