Recovering Snapshots After a Pool Capacity Failure If pool capacity becomes exhausted, all snapshots within that pool (and all the volumes on which the snapshots are based) go offline, and Adaptec Storage Manager generates a failure message. When a pool capacity failure happens, the write that exhausted the pool's capacity is failed back to the iSCSI initiator that wrote it. Note For more information, see "Volume snapshots are snapshots of a file or directory on a specific volume, taken at any time." on page 69. If you receive a failure message, follow these steps to recover your snapshots: 1 Recover or create available space in the pool: • Delete unneeded volumes from the pool (see page 101). • Add storage capacity to the pool (see page 96). • Delete all the snapshot sets associated with the volume (see page 66). 2 In the Snapshots View, select an offline snapshot to highlight its snapshot parent, then select the snapshot parent. 3 In the Actions menu, select Set snapshot group online. Note If the Set snapshot group online menu option is greyed-out, recover or create more space in the pool, following the suggestions in Step 1. 4 Click Yes to confirm. The snapshots are recovered. Using the Reset Button to Perform a Limited Reset of the Appliance The Reset button is accessed via a small hole next to the Power button on the front of the server. Verify that the server is fully booted (as indicated by the System LED blinking once per second), and push the Reset button. The system will reboot after about a minute. As a part of the reset and reboot process, the Snap Server 700i Series: • Clears user-defined settings such as DHCP configuration • Resets the server name to its default setting (SNAP) • Resets network speed and bonding settings to their defaults • Resets the Administrator password to the default (admin) • Resets the Operator password to the default (admin)
