Re: Removing a failed drive permanently

If the drive is a model 070 then you can remove it from the ASP and then from the RAID set and then from the system. If it's any other 07x number then you need to remove it from the ASP, then end RAID, then remove it, then restart RAID.

I have replaced a failed drive with a new drive before but I'd like to pull one that I have no intention of replacing. The system is at only 20% and losing a 8GB drive will make virtually no difference in overall capacity (this is a seldom used test/development system).
Once I pull the failed drive, what do I run so that the RAID set "knows" that the drive won't replaced and that it has to rebuild the "lost" drive using the remaining drives in the set? 

Thanks,
