    hello admin wizards,

    a big thanks to all who replied, in order of appearance:
    Phil Baldwin (after 22 Minutes !!!), Emil Dragic, Pat OŽBrien, Alan
    Rollow (thank you once again) and Fred Serino.

    Generally, there was an agreement that the controller chooses the spare
    drive that fits best to the defined spare policy, and if there is none
    available at the same "column" it will take the next best in sequence.
    Most of you suggested not to use the drive any further, there were,
    however, reports (thank you, Emil) that drives my go offline due to
    thermal problems when the air slits are covered with dust.
    I decided to clean the drive (it was really necessary), will define it
    as single "jbod" and make a stress test with it in the next weeks.
    Meanwhile, I have it replaced with a new one (thanks to the great
    support of Compaq/HP Austria, namely ACP in Graz!)

    As to diag the reason for the error, hints were to check uerf, DECevent,
    WEBES/CA. Since I still run 4.0g on that cluster, i will give that a try
    asap.

    Thanks again all of you !!!
    CW
