[cisco-voip] Can you use the same instructions

[Simon, Bill]

The RAID controllers are hot-plug ... you can pull a drive while the machine
is up and replace it with another one and it will start mirroring from the
live, working drive.

We have always done this using the "top" drive on HP servers (drive 1 versus
drive 0) so I am not sure if this is the only drive that can be hot swapped
or if you can do so with either drive.  I think it used to be only this one,
but maybe the RAID controllers allow either way now.

I believe the drive replacement activity is hardware/RAID controller
based rather than application based. Our drive replacement activities
are the same on our HP servers (Callmanager) as they are on our IBM
servers (Unity). 

*	shut down server
*	unplug drive
*	start up server
*	press the appropriate key to 'fail' the drive, but not change
the configuration (HP=F2, IBM=F5)
*	after server has booted up, insert spare drive
*	confirm drive has been mirrored using appropriate utility

Can I use the same instructions to remove a drive and replace on my
Unity 7835 as I do on my CM 7835?

TIA

Scott
