Hot Spares on Perc4e controllers

It can be added later either as a global hotspare or a hotspare
dedicated to the virtual disk in question.
(If you only have one VD than these operations have the same result).

Subject: Hot Spares on Perc4e controllers

Morning all,
    Simple question, I hope.  When creating a raid 5 array on a Perc4e
controller, can a hot spare be added later, or does it have to be
installed and configured from the outset?

Thanks,
	Andy
