Table 1
Disk error conditions and recommended actions
Status
Recommended action
The status of the vdisk that originally had the failed
disk status is Good. A global or vdisk (dedicated)
spare has been successfully integrated into the
vdisk and the replacement disk can be assigned as
either a global spare or a vdisk spare.
Use SMU to assign the new disk as either a global
spare or a vdisk spare.
The status of the disk just installed is LEFTOVER.
All of the member disks in a vdisk contain
metadata in the first sectors. The storage system
uses the metadata to identify vdisk members after
restarting or replacing enclosures.
Use SMU to clear the metadata if you have a disk
that was previously a member of a vdisk. After you
clear the metadata, you can use the disk in a vdisk
or as a spare.
If the status of the vdisk that originally had the
failed disk status is FATAL FAIL, two or more disks
have failed.
All data in the vdisk is lost. Use the SMU Trust Vdisk
function to attempt to bring the vdisk back online.
The status of the vdisk that originally had the failed
disk status is DRV ABSENT or INCOMPLETE. These
status indicators only occur when the enclosure is
initially powered up. DRV ABSENT indicates that
one disk is bad. INCOMPLETE indicates that two or
more disks are bad.
Make sure the enclosures and associated data host
were powered on in this order: first the drive
enclosures, then the controller enclosure, then the
data host. If the power-on sequence was correct,
locate and replace the additional failed disks.
The status of the vdisk that originally had the failed
disk indicates that the vdisk is being rebuilt.
Wait for the vdisk to complete its operation.
The status of the vdisk that originally had the failed
disk is DRV FAILED.
If this status occurs after you replace a defective
disk with a known good disk, the enclosure
midplane might have experienced a failure.
Replace the enclosure.
