ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual
If the failed drive is not swapped but a local spare drive is added to
the logical drive, rebuilding will begin with the spare drive.
Manual Rebuild
When a user applies forced-manual rebuild, the controller will first
check whether there is any Local Spare Drive assigned to this logical
drive. If yes, it will automatically start to rebuild.
If there is no Local Spare Drive available, the controller will search
for a Global Spare Drive. If there is a Global Spare Drive, it will
automatically rebuild the logical drive.

If neither a Local Spare Drive nor a Global Spare Drive is available,
the controller will detect the SCSI channel and ID of the failed drive.
Once the failed drive has been replaced by a new drive/used drive, it
starts to rebuild using the replaced drive. If there is no available
drive for rebuilding, the controller will not try to rebuild again until
the user applies another forced-manual rebuild.
