Answer

callhome.spares events 

This message occurs when one or more RAID groups do not have an eligible spare disk drive available in case of a disk drive failure.

  • An eligible spare disk drive must be the correct size and capacity and must be in the appropriate pool.
    • If a disk drive fails without a spare to reconstruct on, the system enters degraded mode.
    • This includes  replaced drives that have not been assigned yet. Refer to Spares Low Resolution guide
  • If your system is configured to do so, it generates and transmits an AutoSupport (or ''call home'') message to NetApp technical support and to the configured destinations.
