8.1.1 Actions on internal drives
There are a few actions that can be taken on internal drives when you select the drive and
right-click it, or click the Actions drop-down menu (Figure 8-5).

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).
IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node prevents the drive from being taken offline if there
might be data loss as a result. A drive should be taken offline only if a spare drive is
available.
