Virtual hotplugging??

[Seano2]

Does anyone know if there is any way to virtually remove or disable a hot-plug drive from a Compaq Drive Array without physically removing the drive, and then re-inserting the drive back into the array at a later date, sort of a virtual hotplug?

I need to do an upgrade on a remote Server with a mirrored System Drive, but no-one is available to physically unplug one of the mirrored drives before I start, can this be simulated with a utility or something?

Thanks.

You might be able to do this remotely with Compaq Insight Manager, and all agents on target machine - not too sure.
