Hi There,

I see sometimes the disks becomes init failed and goes to broken pool. So my question is how to get back the init failed disks back to spare pool?

Cheers,

Srikanth

You should go to the maintenance menu (second CTRL+C after system power up) and run the command 'disk unfail all'.

Before that you need to run a command 'raid_config' with 'deletefdr' option but I don't remember exact command spell. You should see available options when running raid_config.

Thanks, and what about disks in "not responding" state? Is there a way to get them back?
