Server Manager supports Disk Rebuild on the primary disk as well as the spare disks in the event of a disk failure. The following use case scenarios of disk rebuilds are supported:
-
Scenario 1: Simple Disk Failure and Spare Disk Rebuild on page 337
-
Scenario 2: Disk Failure, Spare Disk Rebuild and Replacement of Failed Disk on page 338
-
Note:
The DiskRebuild event is not available on a VMAX Array. When the DiskFault event is active for the physical disk and the rebuild starts on the spare physical disk, the virtual machines could experience increased latency in accessing the storage. As a result, the VMHighDiskLatency event might be generated for the virtual machines associated with this physical disk. When the DiskFault and VMHighDiskLatency events are active, it means that the rebuild is in progress. The Disk Down problem will show all of the impacted virtual machines in the Notification Properties view.
