Replace a Disk Drive
7. Remove the four screws that hold the drive in the drive bay and then remove the failed
disk drive as shown in Figure 12.
Figure 12. Removing/Installing a Drive from the Drive Bay
8. Put the new drive in the carrier and attach it to the carrier using four screws as shown in
Figure 12.
9. Ensure that the drive bay lever is in the open position; if it is not, press the purple button
on the drive bay to release the lever and pull it out until it is fully open.
10. Slide the drive bay assembly into the drive slot on the appliance until it is about 1/4”
from being fully inserted. You can do this by pushing on the purple button, which will
cause the lever to close part way. After the drive is almost fully inserted, close the lever to
seat the drive in place as shown in Figure 11.
11. Now that the new drive is installed, add it to the RAID1 pair by running the CLI
command
request system raid add < drive>
. For example, if drive A2 failed in
the A1/A2 RAID1 pair, you would run
request system raid add A2
.
12. To check the status of the new drive, run
request system raid detail.
In this
example, drive A2 shows
spare rebuilding
as shown in the following output:
Disk Pair A Available
Status clean, degraded
Disk id A1 Present
model : ST91000640NS
Note: If you are using a blank carrier that does not have a drive installed, you may
have to remove the blank drive insert before installing the new drive.
