Removing a Failed Disk Drive’s Icon from Adaptec Storage Manager
Note
You can only complete this task on disk drives that are not included in any
pool.
When a disk drive fails, it may still appear in Adaptec Storage Manager although it
is no longer available. To see an accurate representation of your IP SAN and make it
easier to monitor your disk drives, you can remove a failed disk drive from the
Physical Devices View.
In the Physical Devices View, right-click the failed disk drive, then select
Remove

.
Rebuilding Pools
A hot-swap rebuild occurs when a controller detects that a failed disk drive in a pool
has been removed and then reinserted.
To start a hot-swap rebuild:
1
Following the instructions in “Hot Swapping Disk Drives” on page 144, gently
pull the failed disk drive from the server without fully removing it, then wait for
it to spin down fully before continuing.
2
If nothing is wrong with the disk drive, reinstall it.
If necessary, replace the failed disk drive with a new disk drive of equal or larger
size.
3
The controller detects the reinserted (or new) disk drive and begins to rebuild the pool.
