I'd suggest to destroy aggregate B (without data) and zero the spares so if something happens with another productive disk you have a spare again.
If you do not need shelf B I'd zero disks, remove them (unown) from inventory, power off the shelf and keep the disks as spares. I've a 2040 here which is out of support too, It's just for testing purposes, but I've configured 2 Spares. A rebuild of the 1T SATA disks I use lasts for several hours. This is just to be sure it's not my fault if someone has stored productive data on the toaster :)

Hello all…
We have a FAS2040, with 2 shelves, which are not under support…
One failed disk on shelf A, purchased disks, but i am afraid that will take
about 1 week to receive them. What could happen if another disk fails (there is no more spares)?
If aggregate is raid4, filer will shut down after 24 hours to prevent data loss.
There is no DATA at all on SHELF B, should i get one disk from shelf B and
put on A?
If another disk goes bad, is it possible to make SHELF B takeover?
Is shelf B owned by the same filer?
Is it possible to destroy the aggr on shelf B and add it to shelf A so we
would have 12 spares?
Yes, of course.
What you guys would do ?
Thanks in advance!
