5–109

Disks that you plan to use for AUTOSPARE must not have valid metadata on them. If you suspect a disk does have metadata on it (it was used in a stripeset or was initialized as NOTRANSPORTABLE) you must use the following steps to make the disk available as a spareset replacement disk:

These steps use DISK10000 as an example.

1.Delete all containers to which the disk belongs.

2.Make the disk transportable.

SET DISK10000 TRANSPORTABLE

3.Initialize the disk.

INIT DISK10000

4.Delete the disk.

DELETE DISK10000

5.Remove DISK10000 from the cabinet until it is time to replace a failed disk.
