Chapter 6: Adding and replacing a hard
drive
Overview
Hard drives in the Avaya S8730 server are hot swappable. It is not necessary to take the server
out of service or to turn it off when replacing a hard drive.
The S8730 uses a Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) controller to protect against
customer data loss. Models 03 and 04, used for the MAS and MSS-S, provide RAID level 1
redundancy. Model 05, used for the MSS-H, provides RAID level 5 redundancy.
Failed hard drive identification
Hard drives are numbered from left to right starting with number one. There are several way
to identify the hard drive that has failed:
• A major alarm is generate when a hard drive fails. The alarm includes the number of
the failed drive. For more information about displaying active and resolved alarms,
see the maintenance section of
Avaya Modular Messaging Help .
• For an MAS, when a hard drive fails, error event 1216 displays in the Windows Event
Viewer System Event Log. The description of the event gives the number of the failed
drive.
• The two LEDs on the front of each hard drive in combination give the drive status.
