How to Start a Disk (DiskSuite Tool)

1. Make sure you have met the prerequisites ("Prerequisites for Managing the System") and have read the preliminary information ("Preliminary Information for Stopping and Starting Disks").

2. Click Disk View.

   The Disk View window appears. SPARCstorage Array disks that are spun down appear on the canvas with a down arrow beneath the disk.

3. Select a controller, to start all disks connected to it, or select individual disks using Control-click.

   You can also select multiple controllers using Control-click.

4. Choose Start Disks from the Object menu.

5. The system notifies you when the disk is started. Click OK.

   For a SPARCstorage Array disk, the down arrow disappears from beneath the disk, indicating it has spun up. There is no indication for a SCSI disk.
