You can put a disk into the maintenance center by using the disk maint start command.
Considerations
Manually running maintenance tests on a disk does not count toward the number of times a disk is sent to the maintenance center by Data ONTAP.
Step
- Enter the following command:disk maint start [-I] disk_list
If you select a disk that is part of an active file system, the selected disk is marked as prefailed but is not put into the maintenance center until an appropriate spare is found and the disk is copied to the spare using Rapid RAID Recovery. If you want the testing to begin immediately, use the -I option. With the -I option, the RAID group that contains the disk goes in to degraded mode until a spare is located and the disk is reconstructed onto the spare.
