Gather support data about your updated storage array by using one of these methods:

Use the storage management software to collect and save a support bundle of your storage array. From the 
Array Management Window, select 

Monitor >> Health >> Collect Support Data

. Then name and specify a 

location on your system where you want to store the support bundle.

Use the CLI to run the 

save storageArray supportData

 command to gather comprehensive support 

data about the storage array. For more information about this command, refer to 

Command Line Interface and 

Script Commands

. Running this command can temporarily impact performance on your storage array.

NOTE  

In cases where the drive is bypassed, reconstruction does not occur automatically. The drive does, 

however, blink as the system recognizes the drive and DACstore is read.
