removing faulty drive on 3ware 9xxx card

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello everyone,

I have a drive which is constantly putting out:

3w-9xxx: scsi0: AEN: ERROR (0x04:0x0009): Drive timeout detected:port=4,

However the 3ware cli reports it as still a valid member of the array:

//beautemps> info c0

p9     OK               u0     232.88 GB   488397168     WD-WMAEP25657 
p10    OK               u0     232.88 GB   488397168     WD-WMAEP28584 
p11    OK               -      232.88 GB   488397168     WD-WMAEP28250 

Since I'm assuming that this constant drive timeout is what is making my array
show to a crawl, I'd like to remove p4 from the array, have the hotswap on 
p11 take over, then replace p4.

I'm thinking that:

maint remove c0 p4

Is the command I'm looking for.  Any caveats before I try? 

Thanks,
Richard
