Creating a Hot Spare

To partition, format, and mount under OpenSolaris
After you create a RAID unit through 3BM or the 3ware CLI, you will need to
format and partition the unit, create a file system, and mount it.
These types of system administration tasks are found in the OpenSolaris
documentation.

Creating a Hot Spare
You can designate an available drive as a hot spare. If a redundant unit
degrades and a hot spare the size of the degraded disk (or larger) is available,
the hot spare will automatically replace the failed drive in the unit without
user intervention.
It is a good idea to create a hot spare after you create a redundant unit.
Note: When a hot spare replaces a failed drive, an event notification is generated
and appears in the list of alarms in 3DM2. You can also have 3DM2 send you an
email about this. See “Managing E-mail Event Notification” on page 59.
