Replacing a Volume

If you are working in

a V-Switch cluster,

the volume must be

replaced on both V-

Switches.

You can replace a volume with another volume. Use the CLI command
volume replace

after a disk failure to replace a volume used in a

storage hierarchy with a volume on a functional disk. This is only a
‘physical’ replacement. The data on the failed disk is not copied to the
new volume.

If you are replacing a volume used as part of a mirrored volume, continue
with the CLI command volume mirror synch to synchronize the
replacement volume with the other mirrored volume(s). See
“Synchronizing a Volume”.
