IBM DS3400 2 failed drives in a raid 5 array
We have 12 drives in a raid 5 array and we lost two drives. The recovery GURU is showing an Incomplete array. We have replaced both drives but they are showing unassigned. I assume we would need to assign them to the old array and reconstruct them. Does anyone know the correct script to do this?
Thanks

Hopefully you have a backup you can restore from. A 12 drive raid 5 group is very risky, and you just got burned. The probability of two drives failing increases as the drive count increases. Raid 10 or 6 are much safer.

The drives are reaching the end of their life so this is to be expected. We will switch over to a new storage device.

Storage
Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
