Not enough spare disk

A hard drive failed and we replaced it with, but we continue to get:

"There are not enough spare disks. /aggr3/plex0/rg0: Please add spare disks supporting block checksums with minimum size: Used 4"

 

When it was placed in the the netapp, the disk had a bad label, which I unfailed it and then zero'd it.

 

I'm fairly new to this, any suggestions would be helpful.

Correct.  There needs to be at least 1 450GB 15K FC disk in the system as a spare, so one of the other spares would need to be replaced with a 450GB 15K FC drive.

Glad to help!
