Step 2 in creating a 'Hot-spare' disk resource is to select the 'Free' resource which will become a Hot-spare resource.
Step 2 in creating a Hot-spare Pool is to select multiple 'Free' or 'Hot-spare' disk resources which will become members of the Hot-spare Pool.
The attributes chosen in Step 1 are shown, along with a list of suitable candidate disks.
Note: | Candidates are all the 'Free' disks that are in the chosen SSA loop. ( The Network ID selected in Step 1. ) |
Note: | Candidates can also be Hot-spare disks which belong to the relevant SSA loop's Global Pool when you are creating a Hot-spare Pool. That is, the resources in pools A0 or B0. |
Candidate Attributes:
Check Box: (The button in the first table cell of
each row.) Use these to select the pool members. Location: The enclosure name and disk slot number (if available). Serial Number: The unique identifier of the disk.
Status: The resource status, see the
status list for a list of valid states.
Size: The capacity of the disk, in gigabytes.
Network ID: This identifies which SSA Loop this candidate is a member of.
Actions:
(The button in the first table cell of
each row.) Use these to select the Hot-spare resource(s).
This action submits the chosen candidates and attributes to allow
the adapter to complete the Hot-spare creation. If any error occurs,
