Automatically Rebuilding Degraded Virtual Disk
This section discusses the following:
Auto-Rebuild is disabled by default. You can enable Auto-Rebuild in the Property tab for the Adapter, as shown in Figure 1. After enabling Auto-Rebuild, select Modify to confirm the change.
Figure 1 Enabling Auto-Rebuild
Note: If your degraded virtual disk does not auto-rebuild even when a global spare drive is available, verify that the spare drive is suitable for the virtual disk.
When Auto-Rebuild is enabled and a suitable global spare drive is available, MSU can automatically rebuild a virtual disk when it becomes degraded. To assign a physical disk as a global spare drive, see Assigning Physical Disk as Global Spare Drive.
In the absence of a global spare drive, you can auto-rebuild by hot-swapping another physical disk in the same location. MSU automatically rebuilds the virtual disk when it detects an online physical disk at that location.
