Yes, it should rebuild, and you should be fine. Its been a while since I've touched HP, but you should have a GUI loaded on the system that will show you RAID rebuild progress.
With it being an AD server, I'd double check what FSMO roles that server is running prior to doing anything, just so you know what you're up against if it blows up in your face. Jonathan L.

It's my second physical AD server with an virtual as my 3rd back up so I should be ok.

Make sure you've got a good backup, pull the failing drive, put new one in and the raid controller should automatically rebuild. No down time.

I'm ordering a new drive but how do I replace it? Do I have to shut down and start with SmartStart go to ACU and split the Array or do I simply shut down replace the drive and re-start? - - Stefan Jafs ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- Stefan Jafs ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ________________________________ Any medical information contained in this electronic message is CONFIDENTIAL and privileged.
