Hi aborzenkov
Thank you for your detailed explanation!!
You are really giving me big help! Thank you very much!
Yes as you said, actually the the empty slot that I mentioned is inserted a failed hard drive. I think the "data FAILED" in aggregate "bigaggr" is it.
I knew it is broken just because the LED of it turned amber, but I can't see any information of it by "sysconfig -r" command. That's why I said it's a empty slot. As you mentioned, strickly speaking I should said it is failed disk.
Following is the output result of "sysconfig -r" now.

As you adviced, the next step I'm going to replace the failed hard drive ("empty slot" 0c.00.10) by a 1TB new hard drive, and set the new 1TB hard drive to a spare disk.
After that, I will look the rebuild started automatically, and confirm that the "data FAILED" disappear from the aggregate (bigaggr). I think keep the aggregate healthy is the most important mission for me now...
I'm really a beginner of NetApp, so if my plan has any problems, if you can notice that to me, it really will be a big help!!
Thank you for your kindly explanation! Very helpful!
Thank you very much!
