Select a volume that is on the disk you are replacing, click Dismount.
Repeat this step for all volumes on the disk.
5 Click Media > Partitions.
6 Select a partition that is on the disk you are replacing, click Mirror.
7 Select a partition, click Remove.
This removes the partition from the mirror group. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for
each partition that is on the disk you are replacing.
8 Remove the hard disk and install the replacement.
Use the instructions that came with the hard disk.
9 Turn on power and restart the server.
If the failed disk contained the only copy of the server operating system,
refer to your backup software to determine whether you can restore
NetWare and the file system from a backup or whether you must reinstall
NetWare.
If you use Storage Management Services (SMS) as your backup
application, you must reinstall NetWare, then restore files from a backup.
See Restoring Data from a Server in the Storage Management Services
Administration Guide.
After you install the new hard disk you can use ConsoleOne to configure
the disk. For more information about configuring the disk, see Setting Up
and Configuring Novell Storage Services in the Novell Storage Services
Administration Guide.
Loading Disk Drivers
If you add or replace a hard disk adapter on your NetWare server, you must
load the corresponding disk driver.
Loading a disk driver enables communication between the disk controller and
the server's CPU.
Load the disk driver once for each disk adapter you want to support.
Follow the instructions that accompany the driver. Most NetWare disk drivers
have a help file that appears on the screen as you highlight the driver. Refer to
these descriptions to determine which driver to load.
