The puredrive list command is the standard Pure Storage CLI tool for displaying the status and attributes of drives and data packs (DPs). By using the --pack flag followed by a bay identifier from the new DP (e.g., CH0.BAY10), the command filters the output to show the details for that specific pack. The command's output includes a Status field. A status of healthy confirms that the data pack has been successfully evacuated, formatted, and integrated into the array's data layout, making it an active part of the wide write group.

A. find\drive.py: This is a diagnostic script used to physically identify a drive in a chassis by blinking its LEDs, not for checking its logical integration status.

B. puredb list drives: This is a low-level command intended for Pure Storage support to query the internal database. It is not the standard operational command for verifying pack status.

Section: puredrive command reference.

Details: This document describes the puredrive list command as the primary method for displaying drive and data pack attributes. It details the use of the --pack option to filter results for a specific data pack. The output table shown in the guide includes the Status column, which indicates if the pack is healthy, identifying, unrecognized, or in another state. A healthy state signifies successful integration.

Details: While not a CLI guide, documentation on hardware expansion procedures consistently directs administrators to use puredrive list to verify the status of newly added hardware components like data packs. This confirms it as the standard operational procedure.
