A storage administrator needs to replace a failed hot-swappable disk in a degraded RAID 5 array on an operational server. Place the standard troubleshooting and recovery steps in the correct order from first to last.
- 1Identify the exact failed drive slot using the RAID controller management interface and LED indicators.
- 2Unlatch and remove the failed drive carrier from the hot-swap chassis bay.
- 3Mount a new replacement drive of equal or greater capacity into the carrier and insert it into the empty slot.
- 4Initiate or verify the automatic array rebuild process within the RAID management software.
Cevap
The correct sequential procedure is: first, identify the exact failed drive slot using management tools; second, unlatch and remove the failed drive carrier; third, mount and insert a replacement drive of equal or greater capacity; fourth, initiate or verify the RAID rebuild process in management software.
Correct RAID drive replacement requires precise sequential execution: verifying the failed drive location first, removing the faulty drive from the hot-swap bay, seating a drive of equal or greater capacity, and verifying that the RAID controller starts rebuilding parity data onto the new disk.
