Replacement / Installation Instructions
BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ THIS!
The replacement of a single FAILED drive can be done while the application is still
running. It does not require the appliance to be turned OFF or the operating system
(OS) to be shutdown. These are hot swappable hard disk drives that can be removed
and re-installed while power is ON. The appliance will automatically detect the
removal of a FAILED or defective drive and the installation of its replacement.
This is an appliance with RAID storage. Single hard drive failures do not result in an
appliance failure. It will operate in the DEGRADED state until a replacement drive is
installed and a REBUILD of that drive's data is complete. When the REBUILD is done,
the appliance returns to the OPTIMAL state.
Hardware Configuration
It is possible that one or two disks, depending on the RAID type, could be marked as
bad and the RAID marked as degraded, but this will not affect the appliance's ability to
operate.
CAUTION
Removal of any other drives during this procedure or
during the REBUILD will result in system failure.
