    Read through the [**Configuring Arrays on HP Smart Array Controllers Reference Guide**](http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00729544/c00729544.pdf). It will explain how to deal with disk failure on a Smart Array controller. – ewwhite Jan 30 '13 at 13:23

What you are asking here is usually best answered by HP and their product documentation. Servers use different RAID controllers and each usually has a different method for rebuilding an array.

I would strongly urge you to contact HP for the product documentation and RAID controller information. You don't want to rely on us when your data is gone, work with your vendor whenever possible!
