Transitioning a Disk Array

Transition is the process of replacing a revertible spare drive that is currently part

of a disk array with an unconfigured physical drive or a non-revertible spare. The

revertible spare drive returns to its original status. For more information, see

“Transition” on page 210.

In order to run the Transition function:

• The spare drive must be Revertible.

• You must specify an unconfigured physical drive of the same or larger

capacity to replace the revertible spare drive.

To run Transition:

1. Click the Subsystem icon in Tree View.

2. From the dropdown menu on the Background Activities tab, select Start

Transition.

3. Select an unconfigured physical drive from the list of available drives.

4. From the Target Physical Drive dropdown menu, choose an unconfigured

physical drive.

5. Click the Submit button.

After Transition is completed, refresh the screen. The revertible spare drive will

be listed under the Spare Drives icon and the disk array’s operational status will

show OK.

To set Transition priority, see “Making Background Activity Settings” on page 47.
