Then, in afacli, you normally if you replace the failed drive with a replacement (that hasn't been in use in a raid set before) it will automatically initialize and start rebuilding onto it. > likely want to use the "container set failover" in afacli to add the disk > you just added as a failover. I think this is all you need to do, and that yes. sometimes you may have to do this when the controller gets a little confused.. but if you are running on the 2.7-1 firmware it shouldn't.. i've had a few minor issues with older firmware but none so far on the latest rev (or in fact 2.7-0 as well) regards, -jason _______________________________________________ Linux-aacraid-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-aacraid-devel Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq or search the list archives at http://lists.us.dell.com/htdig/
