Question about "disk fail" command. We are running NetApp Release 5.3.6R2. The System Admin guide says that "[t]he disk fail command permanently marks a disk as failed. You cannot reuse the disk; you must replace it." This is pretty strong statement. Can the disk be *unmarked* with some standalone utility or something? Or are we out of luck? :-(
Thanks in advance,
