spare per IM array is permitted. A hot spare is not required in an IM.
A hot spare can be specified at array creation, or any time after
creation, provided the array is made up of 5 disks or fewer. This field
is grayed out under the following conditions:
•
The device does not meet the minimum requirements for use in
an IM array.
•
The array already has a hot spare.
•
The array is made up of the maximum number of devices (6).
•
The device isn't large enough to mirror existing data on the
primary. The hot spare drive must be greater than or equal to
the size of any drive in any IM volume.
Drive Status
xxxx
OK
Disk is online and fully functional.
Missing
Disk is not responding.
Failed
Disk has failed.
Initalizing
Disk is initializing.
CfgOffln
Disk is offline at host's request.
User Fail
Disk is marked failed at host's request.
Offline
Disk is offline for some other reason.
Inactive
Disk has been set inactive.
Not Syncd
Data on disk is not synchronized with the rest of
the array.
Primary
Disk is the primary disk for a 2 disk mirror and is
OK.
Secondary
Disk is the secondary disk for a 2 disk mirror and
is OK.
Wrg Type
Device is not compatible for use as part of an IM
array.
Too Small
Disk is too small to mirror existing data.
Max Dsks
Maximum # of disks allowed for this type of Array
reached and/or Maximum # of total IM disks on a
controller reached.
No SMART
Disk doesn't support SMART, cannot be used in
an RAID array.
Wrg Intfc
Device interface (SAS) differs from existing IM
disks.
Pred Fail
Indicates whether device SMART is predicting device failure (Yes,
No).
Size(MB)
Indicates the size of the device in megabytes (megabyte = 1024 x
1024 = 1,048,576). If the device is part of a two-disk array, this field
reflects the size of the array, not the size of the individual disk. If the
device is part of a three or more disk array, this field is the size that
the disk makes up within the array. When creating a striped array,
the usable size of the array is determined by the number of drives
times the size of the smallest drive in the array. In arrays consisting
of different sized drives, excess space on larger drives are unusable.
