B.3.2. Removing spare objects
If a RAID-1 or RAID-4/5 region is clean and operating normally, and that region has a spare object, the spare object can be removed from the region if you need to use that object for another purpose.
For both RAID-1 and RAID-4/5 regions, use the "remspare" plug-in function to remove a spare object from the region. The only argument is the name of the desired object, and only one spare object can be removed at a time. After the spare is removed, that object will show up in the Available-Objects list in the EVMS user interfaces.
Spare objects can be removed while the RAID region is active and in use.
