Hill all,

Current scenario: VNX5300 (VNX1) array with a failed disk and a hot spare taking its place. Rebuilt is complete. There is an unbound disk in the array that has never been a part of this or any other raid groups or storage pools.

My questions are:

1-) Can I physically remove the unbound disk from the array and replace the failed disk with it?

2-) Will Unisphere complain that the unbound disk has been removed and keep the alarm until it's back into the original bay?

Thanks
