ADD SPARESET DISKNNNNN

ADD SPARESET DISK11300
ADD SPARESET DISK21300

You can delete disks in the spareset if you need to use them elsewhere in your subsystem.
1. Show the contents of the spareset entering the following command:
SHOW SPARESET
2. Delete the desired disk drive entering the following command:
DELETE SPARESET DISKNNNNN
NOTE: The RUN CONFIG command does not delete disks from the controllers’ device table if a

DELETE DISKNNNN.
3. Verify the contents of the spareset by entering the following command:
SHOW SPARESET

To enable autospare, use the following command:
SET FAILEDSET AUTOSPARE
