The -fd option is optional and can be

For information about setting global
hot spares, see Assigning,
Unassigning, And Listing Global Hot
Spares.
For SCSI controllers, the value of LUN
should always be 0.
For SAS controllers, the value of
enclosure can be non-zero, in which
case you must specify values for
channel, target, and enclosure.
