Service the PA-5400 Series Firewall Hardware
and install the second replacement drive (one that is the same model as Sys1) into the
carrier. Then, install the second replacement drive in slot Sys 2.
9. Add the second replacement drive to the RAID 1 array. In this example, run the following
command to add drive Sys2 to the array
admin@PA-5420> request system raid add sys2
If the replacement drive was previously used as a system drive in a different Palo
Alto Networks firewall, include the force option in this command to force the
system to reformat the drive and add it to the array. If you reboot the firewall
after removing the failed drive from the array, the force option is not required.
Because the firewall recognizes that a system drive is missing and automatically
reformats the newly inserted drive and adds it to the array.
The system automatically starts to configure the new drive to mirror the other drive in
the RAID 1 array.
10. Periodically view the RAID status until you see that the Overall System Drives
RAID status shows Good, all partitions show clean, and both drives show active
sync. To view RAID status, run the following command:
admin@PA-5420> show system raid detail
Do not reboot the firewall until all partitions are ready; otherwise, the system
drives may become out of sync and the firewall will not boot.
