7.2.11 Removing 2.5-inch HDD/SSD modules
I
PCIe SSDs SFF are mounted in the same frames as the 2.5-inch
HDD/SSD modules. Therefore, this section is also valid and applicable if
PCIe SSDs SFF are used.
The preliminary and concluding steps are only necessary for HDD/SSD
modules, not for the PCIe SSDs SFF. PCIe SSDs SFF are never
combined in a RAID array.
7.2.11.1 Preliminary steps
Ê
If the HDD/SSD module to be removed is combined into a RAID array,
please proceed as follows:
Customer Replaceable Unit
(CRU)
Hardware: 5 minutes
Tools:
tool-less
RAID level Procedure
RAID 0
Only remove an HDD module combined in a RAID 0 array if
defective.
V CAUTION!
Removing an operational HDD module will result
in data loss!
RAID 1
RAID 5
Removing an HDD module from a RAID 1 or RAID 5 array
will not result in data loss.
However, the removed drive needs to be replaced
immediately by an HDD module of the same or larger
capacity.
I
After replacing the HDD module, RAID rebuild will
be performed as a background process as
described in section "Performing a RAID array
rebuild" on page 137.
