               Hi Managers,
                                    I have a problem on one of the RA3000
RAID ARRAY Storage works.The configuration is
                                   that there is a single HSZ22 controller
and one RAID set of 5 drives. Four drives are on channel
                                   zero and one drive is on channel one. The
drive on channel one had a problem and was hot swapped.
                                   After swapping the drive the SWCC
management software shows that the drive is available but is not
                                   a member of the RAID set. There is no
option on the management software ( SWCC V2.3) where
                                  we can add this drive to the existing
RAID set. There is an option available where we can remove
                                  a drive from the group. There is no
activity on the drive and no amber light.
                                 Any Suggestions to solve this problem.? Do
I have to reconfigure the RAID set after taking the Backup
                                 and then restoring the backup?
                                  Also one of the drive on channel 0 is
showing amber light permanently on and green light blinking.
                                  What does this indicate? Any Idea?
                                 The RAID Array firmware rev is d11x

                                Thanks in advance
