Rebuilding Logical Drives
Depending on whether or not there is a spare drive, rebuilding is
initiated automatically or manually. In the presence of a spare
drive, the system automatically rebuilds onto the spare drive.
This process is done in the background, thus it appears
transparent to the user.
In the absence of a spare drive, rebuilding must be initiated
manually. Before initiating a manual rebuild, you need to first
replace the failed drive. If you install the replacement drive on
the same connector (that is, same channel and SCSI ID), then
you can proceed with the rebuilding process; otherwise, you
need to scan in the drive first.
