Assigning a Global Hot-Spare
A Global Hot-Spare is an available drive that needs to be assigned by the user so
that it will be reserved and available to act as a replacement, for any failed
member drive for any array in the system, when a rebuild operation is required.
When a Global Hot-Spare is in the enclosure or a Dedicated Hot-Spare is
assigned to an array, the auto rebuild operation is enabled. Please note:
initialization must not be running in the background; otherwise, rebuild will
not run until initialization is completed.
To assign a drive as a global hot-spare, follow the steps below. This is the only
process to create a Global Hot-Spare; it is not available while creating an array.
