Configuring hot spare drives

Configuring hot spare drives
When you configure storage, you can designate hot spare drives. For more information
about hot spares, see “Using Hot Spare drives” on page 73.
If the drives you want to designate as hot spares are bound as part of a data LUN, you
must unbind the drives first, then bind them as hot spares. (Refer to “Unbinding LUNs
for reconfiguration” on page 91.)
To bind drives as hot spare drives:
1. Start Configuration Manager using the desktop shortcut or by selecting Start |
Programs | Profile Applications | Configuration Manager .
2. In Configuration Manager, click File System in the Configuration Manager
window. The GVG Disk Utility appears.
3. To bind unbound disks as hot spares, right-click the Unbound node for a controller,
then select Bind LUNs in the context menu. (Peer controllers that share the same set
of disks are automatically selected as a pair.)
