Hi,

You can reseat one of them, but most of the time the faulted disk remains faulted status..

Had the hotspare disk kicked in? Please be careful, "doulbe-faulted" disks in one RAID group may lead to a DU/DL (data unavailable or data lost).

Thank you for the reply. A 3rd disk had failed a week earlier. So the AX was running on RAID5 only, when the problem happened. I will reseat the disk and let you know.

Be very careful about re-seating the disks. In a two disk failure situation (disks in the same raid group), you should only re-seat the second disk that failed.

Thank you all for the help and the advice. I reseated the the last disk which failed and the volume is accessible again.
