Hot swapping the FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A and
FortiAnalyzer-4000/4000A

The following diagram indicates the drive number and their location in the
FortiAnalyzer unit when you are looking at the front of the unit. Refer to this
diagram before removing the disk drive to ensure you remove the correct one.

You can use any brand of hard disk to replace a failed hard disk; however, you
must ensure that the hard disk size is the same size or larger as the remaining
working drives. Using a smaller drive will affect the RAID setup. The FortiAnalyzer
unit will reconfigure the RAID for the smallest drive, potentially causing data loss.

Table 5: FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A disk drive configuration

Table 6: FortiAnalyzer-4000 disk drive configuration

The FortiAnalyzer-4000A can have different disk drive configurations because the
disk layout depends on the RAID controller model.

To swap a hard disk

1

Go to System > Config > RAID.

If you are using the RAID Monitor widget, select RAID Settings in the title bar
area. The RAID Monitor widget displays which hard disk has failed, displaying a
warning symbol next to the failed disk.

2

Select Remove for the failed hard disk.

3

Remove the hard disk from the drive bay on the FortiAnalyzer unit.
• On the FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A, press in the tab and pull the drive handle to

remove the dive.

• On the FortiAnalyzer-4000/4000A, using a screw driver, turn the handle lock so

it is horizontal. Push the blue latch right and pull the drive handle to remove the
drive.

4

Select Click to start the controller re-scan.

The FortiAnalyzer disk controller scans the available hard disks and updates the
RAID array for the remaining hard disks. The RAID array status will be
“Degraded”.

5

Insert the new hard disk into the empty drive bay on the FortiAnalyzer unit.

6

Select Click to start controller re-scan.

The FortiAnalyzer disk controller will scan the available hard disks and update its
information with the new hard disk.

7

Select Add to add the hard disk to the RAID array.

The FortiAnalyzer unit rebuilds the RAID array with the new hard disk.
