PERC 3 Si - 2450

[Patrick_Boyd at Dell.com]

The simplest way is to assign the first disk as a hotspare to the
container. This will rebuild the container.

I have an older poweredge 2450 that I will be using as a webmail server
with centos.

I was playing around with it, so I can familiarize myself with it and
understand what to do if I got a failed disk.

I set this server up as raid one and installed centos without any
problem. I then, on purpose, formatted the 1st HD and restated the
system. It did exactly what I thought it would, it restarted and worked
using the second HD.

Now this is where I'm lost and I have tried everything and I cant see to
get this working. 

How do I repair the 1st disk ?

When I boot the container warning me about a missing member and when I
press control + a under the container I see, 

Container status: Critical with missing member. I read the missing
member is what I want in order to repair the disk. 

Some of the documents I looked at talk about CLI software, but I would
rather repair it, if possible using the container utility.


TIA, P
