Pegasus 32 Red light = dead disk

Hi Lars,

The simplest way is with the CLI. Open a terminal and enter promiseutil, this will start the CLI if you have the Promise Utility installed. The Promise Utility is needed for this, so if it's not installed, please install it.

For example, in the case below PD1 has been replaced with a passthru drive. The phydrv command shows the state of the drives. The CLI commands are bolded.

The steps are

1. Change PD1 from passthru to unconfigured.

2. Make PD1 a spare.

After PD1 is made a spare, the controller will start a rebuild on it. It takes a few seconds.

Hi S A,

The SMART data was to find which drive was failing, as it has already failed we don't need it. On the other hand, all the other drives are looking good and not showing any signs of impending doom.

This is the problem.

PD2 (second drive from the top is in passthru mode. We need to change that or we can't add it to the array.

The CLI command to remove the passthru mode is...

phydrv -a mod -s "config=unconfig" -p 2

The simplest way to start a rebuild is to make PD2 a spare.

spare -a add -p 2
