Rebuilding a Disk Array
When you rebuild a disk array, you are actually rebuilding the data on a
replacement physical drive.

Critical. However, if the Auto Rebuild function is disabled or no spare drives are
available, you must initiate the procedure.
To enable Auto Rebuild
, see ―Making Background Activity Settings‖ on page 69.
To create a spare drive, se
e ―Creating a Spare Drive‖ on page 172.
For more information,
see ―Hot Spare Drive(s)‖ on page 340.

array as described below:

icon in Tree View.
