|---|
Hot-relocation: in addition to using disks as hot spares, the hot relocation facility can also use any available free space in the disk group. If no disks have been designated as spares when a failure of a redundant object occurs, VxVM automatically uses any available free space in the disk group in which the failure occurs. If there is not enough spare disk space, a combination of spare space and free space is used. After a disk is repaired, you can move all the hot-relocated subdisks back to the original disk using the vxunreloc (1M) utility.
|
No action needed for hot relocation.
