Activating a Virtual Disk
A virtual disk can become inactive if, for example, it is removed from
one PERC H200 card and moved to another one. The Activate option allows
you to reactivate an inactive virtual disk that has been added to a system.
This option is only available when the selected virtual disk is currently inactive.
NOTE: Do not migrate a volume or hotspares to a different system unless that
system does not currently have the maximum number of virtual disks and hotspares.
There is a maximum of 2 hot spares and 2 virtual disks supported globally.
Hot spares only apply to a redundant volume if it is of the same type and at least
the same capacity of the volume. Exceeding this number may result in
undesirable behavior.
