Manual Drive Replacement or Excluding
You can exclude a drive from a RAID configuration, or replace it with another one, whether it has failed or is still functioning in the RAID. To do so, use the command:
# xicli raid replace <args>
Tip:
If you manually replace a drive that is a part of a spare pool, the drive excludes from the spare pool.
