Re: How to find whether a disk is hot swappable

It depends on the hardware (server or enclosure model).


What model do you have?

Hope this helps!

And what in heaven's name is vgdisplay supposed to tell us about whether a disk is hot swappable or not???????

"vgdisplay -v "

With this you cannot see if a disk is or is not hot-swappable......

Re: How to find whether a disk is hot swappable

IMHO as long as you don't have really old hardware (e.g. K-class, V-class, some D-class models, e-class and older), the internal disks should be hot pluggable.

Tell us about your hardware and we will see ...




BTW, there is NO command that tells you if a disk is hot pluggable or not.

Hope this helps!

Shalom,

"Mark one eyeballs" A quote from the series battlestar galactica as pilots searched for a missing pilot without sensors.

It applies here.

Some things you just have to do by looking.
