Replace a failed or removed disk
Menu: VolumeManager/Disk/ReplaceDisk
Use this menu operation to specify a replacement disk for a disk
that you removed with the "Remove a disk for replacement" menu
operation, or that failed during use. You will be prompted for
a disk name to replace and a disk device to use as a replacement.
You can choose an uninitialized disk, in which case the disk will
be initialized, or you can choose a disk that you have already
initialized using the Add or initialize a disk menu operation.
Select a removed or failed disk [<disk>,list,q,?] disk
There is no disk named disk in any disk group configuration.
To get a list of disks enter "list".
Select a removed or failed disk [<disk>,list,q,?] list
Disk group: rootdg

Select a removed or failed disk [<disk>,list,q,?] disk13
Select disk device to initialize [<address>,list,q,?] c1t13d0
The following disk device has a valid VTOC, but does not appear to have
been initialized for the Volume Manager. If there is data on the disk
that should NOT be destroyed you should encapsulate the existing disk
partitions as volumes instead of adding the disk as a new disk.
Output format: [Device_Name]
c1t13d0
Encapsulate this device? [y,n,q,?] (default: y) n
c1t13d0
Instead of encapsulating, initialize? [y,n,q,?] (default: n) y
The requested operation is to initialize disk device c1t13d0 and
to then use that device to replace the removed or failed disk
disk13 in disk group backupdg.
Continue with operation? [y,n,q,?] (default: y)
Initialization of disk device c1t13d0 failed.
Error: vxvm:vxdisk: ERROR: Device c1t13d0s2: online failed:
Device path not valid
Replace a different disk? [y,n,q,?] (default: n)
