What Caused the Problem?
One or more drives have failed and the logical drives on those drives have become degraded. The data on the logical drives is still accessible. However, data may be lost if another drive in the array fails. The Recovery Guru Details area provides specific information you will need as you follow the recovery steps.
Caution
Electrostatic discharge can damage sensitive components. Use a grounding wrist strap or other anti-static precautions before removing or handling components.
Important Notes
Recovery Steps
1 | Remove all failed drives associated with this array (the fault indicator lights on the failed drives should be on). To determine the associated drives, select one of the affected logical drives, listed the Details area, in the Logical View of the Subsystem Management Window. Each associated drive will have an association dot underneath it. |
2 | Wait 30 seconds, then insert the new drives. The fault indicator light on the new drives may come on for a short time (one minute or less). Result: Data reconstruction should begin on the new drives. Their fault indicator lights will go off and the activity indicator lights of the drives in the array will start flashing. When the reconstruction starts, the array's logical drive icons in the Logical View of the Subsystem Management Window changes to Operation in Progress ![]() ![]() Notes:

3 | Select Recheck to rerun the Recovery Guru to ensure that the failure has been fixed. |
