KB 10290 - Why does netsend start automatically when it’s set to
manual?
We found that setting netsend to manually start is not persistent across
restarts. The issue has been identified and will be fixed in a future release.
To work around this issue following a power cycle/reboot/restart use
CLI/WebPAM to manually stop the netsend protocol. For CLI: swmgt –n
netsent stop For WebPAM Pro: go to the Software Management
page.

In most cases a drive is marked
Dead, PFA or Stale due to disk errors and the disk should not be reused.
Stale disk:
If a disk is marked Stale it should not be reused. However there are some conditions a disk may go stale on an otherwise good disk.
Unless you are absolutely sure the disk is good and know why the stale state happened, a stale disk should not be reused.
PFA disk:
If a disk is marked PFA, we believe the disk will fail and it should not be reused. Disks with SMART errors, physical errors or frequently time-out are often marked PFA.
A disk marked PFA should not be reused.
Dead disk:
If a disk is marked Dead, it should not be reused. However disks could be marked dead for reasons other than disk failure. Accidentally removing a disk or power cycle the unit in an incorrect order may create dead disks. These disks would otherwise be good, except for user error.
Unless you know the specifics on why the disk is marked dead, a dead disk is likely a failing disk and should not be reused.
Do not force Dead disks online unless you know the array data is current and not stale. Please contact Promise Technical Support and provide the system service report (subsysteminfo) before forcing any dead disk online.
