arcconf: How to add a hotspare drive to a logical drive

Linux No Comments »

If you have a IBM ServeRAID 8k controller and you have changed a defunct drive with new one,

and rebuilding is not starting, you must add your new READY drive to your logical drive.

Usage: SETSTATE <Controller#> DEVICE <Channel# ID#> <State> [LOGICALDRIVE <LD#> [LD#] … ] [noprompt]

if you are in this particular situation :

DEVICE is 1

disk is 0,5

and logical drive is 1

./arcconf setstate 1 device 0 5 hsp logicaldrive 1
