Rebuilding a newly installed disk

If a hot spare rebuild operation is not initiated by the controller when you have installed a new disk, you must initiate a rebuild operation before the disk is recognized by the system.

  1. Run the iprconfig utility by typing iprconfig.
  2. Select Work with disk unit recovery.
  3. Select the disk you want to rebuild; then, press Enter.
    Attention: Data currently on the disk will be overwritten.
  4. To rebuild data, press Enter. If you do not want to rebuild data, type q to cancel.
