Display spare disks

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The command storage aggregate show-spare-disks displays information about spare disks. The command output depends on the parameter or parameters specified with the command. If no parameters are specified, the command displays information about all spare disks in the cluster.

Parameters

{ [-fields <fieldname>,…​]

If you specify the -fields <fieldname>, …​ parameter, the command output also includes the specified field or fields. You can use '-fields ?' to display the fields to specify.

Hard disk drives with the same effective-disk-type value may be mixed together in the same aggregate depending upon the system's raid.mix.hdd.disktype.capacity and raid.mix.hdd.disktype.performance option settings.

Selects the spare disks that match this parameter value.

Shared disks have partitions that allow them to be used in multiple aggregates and between nodes in an HA pair. When set to true , this parameter selects shared disks in which the root partition and/or the data partition is a spare. When set to false only spare disks without partitions are displayed. When this parameter is not used, all spare disks are displayed.

[-is-disk-offline {true|false}] - Is Disk Offline?

Selects the spare disks that match this parameter value.

Disk offline events are typically temporary events which allow Data ONTAP to perform background error recovery activity.
