Replacing disk drives
For SteelHead appliances, the new disk drive runs through a self-test automatically. The disk drive
automatically begins proper operation with the other disk drives. You don’t need to set up or configure
the new disk drive. For SteelCentral appliances, see the user guide for the product if additional steps are
necessary to run a self-test.
Important:
For SteelHead appliances, it takes approximately 3 to 4 hours, depending on the system load, to rebuild
a new disk drive. In the web interface you can configure SteelHead appliances to send an email to the administrator
user when the disk drive has finished rebuilding.
