If a hard drive fails
The tasks you perform if you experience a hard drive failure vary,
depending on the BIG-IP software version installed on your system.
For version 9.x and 10.0.0
Your system cannot use the spare disk as a replacement, but if your primary
disk fails, you have two options:
◆
If you would like to get the system up and running while you wait for a
replacement hard drive from F5 Networks, you can perform the
following steps:
1. Swap the hard drives.
2. Reinstall the BIG-IP software.
3. Copy a backup configuration file to the system.
◆
If you would like to wait until you receive the replacement hard drive,
you can perform the following steps:
1. Remove the failed hard drive and replace it with the new one that
you received from F5 Networks.
2. Reinstall the BIG-IP software.
3. Copy a backup configuration file to the system.
For version 10.0.1
If you have run the
sparedisk
utility previously, you can move the spare
hard drive to the primary hard drive bay. The
sparedisk
utility enables you
to copy the contents of your primary hard drive to the secondary hard drive
in the same system. For more information on replacing the primary hard
drive with the spare hard drive, see
Replacing the primary hard drive with
the spare hard drive
, on page 3.
