򐂰 The Fix Error action starts the Directed Maintenance Procedure (DMP) for a defective
drive.
򐂰 The internal drives can be taken offline when there are problems on the drives by clicking
Take Offline in the Actions drop-down menu. A confirmation window opens (Figure 8-6).

might be data loss as a result. A drive should be taken offline only if a spare drive is
available.
