Drive
State
Meaning
Defunct
A physical hard disk drive in the Online,
Hot-Spare, or Rebuild state has become
defunct. It does not respond to commands,
which means that the ServeRAID controller
cannot communicate properly with the drive.
A hard disk drive in the Defunct state does
not necessarily mean that you need to
replace the drive. Before you replace the
drive, ensure that:
1. All cables are connected properly to the
server backplane and to the hard disk
drive. Also, check to ensure that all
cables inside the server are connected
properly.
2. The hot-swap drive trays are seated
properly in the drive bay.
3. The termination for each device on the
SCSI channel is set properly.
4. Each device on the SCSI channel has
its own, unique SCSI ID.
If the hard disk drive still does not function
after you perform these steps, replace the
drive.
Empty
No device is present in the bay.
Hot Spare
A Hot-Spare drive is a hard disk drive that is
defined for automatic use when a similar
drive fails.
Online
The drive is Online. It is functioning properly
and is part of an array.
Rebuilding
The drive is being rebuilt.
For more information on rebuilding a drive,
refer to “Rebuilding a defunct drive” on
page 157.
Ready
The ServeRAID controller recognizes a
Ready drive as being available for definition.
Standby
A Standby drive is a hard disk drive that the
ServeRAID controller has spun down.
Standby
Hot Spare
A Standby Hot Spare is a Hot-Spare drive
that the ServeRAID controller has spun
down. If an Online drive becomes Defunct
and no suitable Hot-Spare drive is available,
a Standby Hot-Spare drive of the appropriate
size automatically spins up, and enters the
Rebuild state.
