Configuring Units

3ware 9000 Series Serial ATA RAID Controller Installation Guide

Depending on the RAID configuration you are creating,
initialization of the unit may begin immediately. For details, see
“Initializing Units” on page 49.

Specifying a Hot Spare

You can designate one of the

Available Drives

as a hot spare in

3BM

If a hot spare is specified and a redundant unit degrades, an

event notification will be generated. The hot spare will
automatically replace the failed drive without user intervention.

To specify a hot spare

In the list of

Available Drives

, highlight the drive to use

Type

to specify that the selected drive will be the hot spare.

You’ll see the words “Hot Spare” appear next to the drive in the
Available Drives list.

Figure 16. Hot Spare Indicated
