Replacing a hot-swap drive
Drive problems include any malfunctions that delay, interrupt, or prevent successful I/O activity between
the hosts and the drives in the storage subsystem. This includes transmission problems between the host
controllers and the drives. This section explains how to replace a failed drive.
Note: If you want to remove a drive that is not in a failed or bypass state, always use the Storage
Manager software either to place the drive in a failed state or to place the array that is associated with
the drive (or drives) in an offline state before you remove the drive from the storage subsystem.
Attention:
Failure to replace a drive in its correct bay might result in loss of data. If you are replacing a
drive that is part of a configured array and logical drive, be sure to install the replacement drive in the
correct bay. See the hardware and software documentation that comes with the DS3500 to determine
whether there are restrictions regarding drive configurations.
To replace a hot-swap drive, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page “Safety” on page xi and “Best practices guidelines”
on page 1-7.
2. Use the Storage Manager software to print a new storage system profile.
3. Determine the location of the drive that you want to remove.
Attention: Never hot-swap a drive when its associated green activity LED is flashing. Hot-swap a
drive only when its associated amber status LED is lit and not flashing.
4.
Remove the drive (see “Removing a hard disk drive” on page 5-13).
5.
Unpack the new drive. Save all packing material in case you have to return the drive.
Note: Use “Hard disk drive locations” on page A-1 to make sure that you replace the drive into the
correct bay.
6. Install the new drive (see “Installing a hard disk drive” on page 5-15).
