Appendix F Serial Attached SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility F-25
Hot Spr Specifies whether the disk is the hotspare for a RAID array (Yes or
No). RAID Arrays are not required to have a hotspare. Only one
hotspare per RAID array is permitted. You can define a hotspare
when you create an array or at any time after creation, if the array is
made up of two disks or fewer. This field is grayed out under the
following conditions:
• The disk does not meet the minimum requirements for use in a
RAID array.
• The array already has a hotspare.
• The array is made up of the maximum number of disks (three).
• The disk is not large enough to mirror existing data on the primary
disk.
• Integrated Striping firmware is used. (Striped arrays do not
support hotspares.)
