PROBLEM OVERVIEW: Faulty disk

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :

The operating system should be configured by the customer such that the disk drive is free for replacement. The disk may be part of Solaris Volume Manager, Veritas Volume Manager, mounted file-system, raw partitions, etc. A data backup may be required to restore data onto a replaced disk. If a data backup is not required it is still a wise precaution.

NOTE: Please be aware that disks could be in hardware raid volumes. When replacing a failed drive in a hardware RAID volume, refer to following for details on Hardware Raid operations: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19076-01/t2k.srvr/819-2549-12/ontario-volume_man.html#pgfId-1001201
