Convert to RAID or Non RAID is not supported on PERC 10 (RAID mode) and BOSS
controller cards. PERC10 in eHBA mode supports convert to RAID or Non-RAID.
NOTE: -mdtype is only supported for SWRAID controllers.
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign yes -type dhs -vdkey: <VD
FQDD>
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign yes type ghs
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign no
racadm storage patrolread:<Controller FQDD> -state start|stop
NOTE:
If the assign option is no, you cannot add other options. If the assign option is yes
