Incorporating the Disk into the RAID
Monitoring the Rebuild

After you remove the drive, an audible alarm goes off to signal that the drive
is missing. From the CLI (priv-exec mode), you can use the
command to quiet this alarm:
raid silence
For example, the following command sequence logs into a switch at
enable
10.1.23.11, enters
alarm:
$ telnet 10.1.23.11
Trying 10.1.23.11...
Connected to 10.1.23.11.
Escape character is '^]'.

prtlndA1k# raid silence
prtlndA1k# ...
To replace the disk drive, slide it into the empty slot and tighten its two
captive screws. The screws should be at least finger tight for the drive to
properly engage.
To incorporate the disk into the RAID, use the
priv-exec mode:
raid rebuild {disk1 | disk2}
where disk1 | disk2 specifies the disk to rebuild. The top disk is disk1.
For example, the following command rebuilds the lower disk:
prtlndA1k# raid rebuild disk2
prtlndA1k# ...
A disk rebuild can take more than an hour. To monitor the progress of the
show chassis diskuse
rebuild, you can use the
percentage-complete meter:
show chassis diskuse
The meter is a number in the
to go to priv-exec mode, and silences the RAID
raid rebuild
command to see a
Rebuild Progress
field, under
raid silence
command from
