User Action​

  1. Resolve any non-disk hardware problems, especially a cooling problem or a faulty power supply.
  2. If the disk is in a disk group that uses a non-fault-tolerant RAID level (RAID 0 or non-RAID), copy the data to a different disk group and replace the faulty disk.
  3. If the disk is in a disk group that uses a fault-tolerant RAID level, check the current state of the disk group. If it is not FTOL, back up the data because data might be at risk. If it is FTOL, replace the specified disk. If more than one disk in the same disk group has logged a SMART event, back up the data and replace each disk one at a time.

    In virtual storage it may be possible to remove the affected disk group, which will drain its data to another disk group, and then re-add the disk group.
