Replacing a Disk Module in the Quad Pack
A defective Disk Drive can be easily replaced. Drive Hot Swapping is not an
option with the PRO RXmpd without interruption to your workflow. If the RAID is
operating in one of the drive redundant RAID modes (1, 3, 5, 6) we need to
identify the downed disk drive.
The disk drives are recognized by the GUI starting with the top drive in the first
Disk Module (Pack) as noted in the diagram. They are numbered counting down
the first Disk Module (Pack) then back to the top of the second Disk Module
(Pack) and down, and so on to disk drive #16.
Disk Drive #16
Disk Drive #1
In the event of a drive failure the GUI will report the failed drive as noted in the
Raid Set Hierarchy.
