The machine has already one more hot spare.

Hello,
What RAID level are you using? RAID50, and RAID10 always have two spares. RAID6 has one because of the double parity.
The only options on some RAID levels is NO spares but I do not recommend that!! There is no way to designate the number of spares.
Regards,
Don
