How to Add a Disk Drive in a Running Cluster
Use this procedure to add a disk drive to a StorEdge A3500/A3500FC controlled
disk array that is in a running cluster.
Caution – If the disk drive you are adding was previously owned by another
controller module, preformat the disk drive to wipe clean the old DacStore
information before adding it to this disk array.
1. Install the new disk drive to the disk array.
For the procedure on installing a disk drive, see the Sun StorEdge D1000 Storage
Guide.
2. Allow the disk drive to spin up (approximately 30 seconds).
3. Run Health Check to ensure that the new disk drive is not defective.
For instructions on running Recovery Guru and Health Check, see the Sun StorEdge
RAID Manager User’s Guide.
4. Fail the new drive, then revive the drive to update DacStore on the drive.
For instructions on failing drives and manual recovery procedures, see the Sun
StorEdge RAID Manager User’s Guide.
5. Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 for each disk drive you are adding.
