Hot Spare pool
One more query in SVM Smilie Now with hot spare spool...

I can understand adding/replacing a slice in particular hot spare pool with "-a / -r" option (or) adding a slice to all existing hot spare pool with "-all" option. Here my query is for deleting, we have only option "-d".

1) If the hot spare slice failing and its already added in multiple hotspare pool. how to delete that? Here can we use "-d -all" to remove ? or anyother options we have?

2) If we have 10 hot spare pool and we want to add a slice in (for example) particular 4 hot spare pool, how to add in a single command? Is it possible ?

Thanks,
Gowtham

1) use "-d all" metahs(1M) – manage hot spares and hot spare pools (man pages section 1M: System Administration Commands) - Sun Microsystems
2)Yes you can.. How to Add Additional Slices to a Hot Spare Pool (Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide) - Sun Microsystems
