PERC 3/Di: unconfigured stripe

I have one stripe volume on my PowerEdge 4400 equipped with PERC 3/Di
controller. After one of the drives failed I replaced it with a new one.
Since the automatic fail over is switched off (because of some reasons)
I used the "container set failover" afacli command to add replaced drive
to redundant containers (raid5, mirror). Unfortunately, this trick does
not work with non-redundant container (stripe). After issuing:
> container set failover 4 0
command I get an error message (4-number of my stripe container and 0-id
of replaced disk) and the status of the container remains still
unconfigured.
So, my question is how can I make (using the afacli) the stripe
container valid after replacing a failed drive?

Best regards
Thanks in advance
