[RAID] Difference between faulted and faulty


According to this link:

http://www.datadisk.co.uk/html_docs/redhat/rh_raid.htm

what's the difference between "faulty" and "faulted"?

Quote:
To remove a disk from the raid array use the following commands, the disk has to be faulty not faulted (see above) to allow this option to work, at this point the disk can be physically removed.
thankyou

as I read that page, marking a drive as faulted is an action of the software, but marking it as faulty is one for the administrator.
