The Slicestor device to be replaced in the storage pool.

destinationId Long Required  

The Slicestor device that is moving into the storage pool. This device cannot already be in a storage pool.

Flag used to set if data evacuation should occur when the device replacement is executed. Setting to false means that device evacuation will not occur immediately upon replacement and must be enabled at a later time.
rateLimitEnabled Boolean Optional  

Flag if a rate limit should be enabled for the device evacuation, once it begins.

Rate limit (in megabytes) to set for the evacuation from sourceId to destinationId. Use a rate limit to lower the impact that device data evacuation has on the rest of the system.
