Summary
Spare is the command used to display all hot spare drives as well as to create and delete hot spare drives.
A Global hot spare is the most generic form. A global hot spare drive can replace any drive from a pool of equal
size or less.
A dedicated hot spare is a spare drive that has been assigned specically to one or more pools. It is used to
replace only drives that are in these assigned pools. If a drive is marked ofine that was not in one of the assigned
pools, the dedicated spare will not replace that drive. This feature can used for prioritizing pools which may have
a greater need to survive disk failures.
