Figure 56 Fix Primary Paths Wizard window 6. Select Apply to set all paths back to their primary paths. Failure of both paths (double path failure) is indicated by the red critical icon and a specific notification message. The notification message differs based on whether the failure occurs while running or upon booting the system (Figure 57). Figure 57 Notifications window • A double path failure that occurs while running results in the critical alert Fibre Channel Paths Failed for Lun, ulid wwnn . • A double path failure that occurs upon booting the system results in the critical alert Missing Storage LUN paths on node #. This means the node can not communicate with the LUN at all. If the failed paths are on the primary node, the whole storage pool containing that LUN is off-line; if the failed paths are on a secondary node, the storage pool is on-line until reboot, but the storage pool is inaccessible from that node. In this case, you can still get to the LUNs, but only from a different node. To repair double path failure (assuming there has been no reboot during the failure): 1. Determine the cause of the failures and repair them if needed. 2. In Command View VLS, access the System tab. 90 Management

to set all paths back to their primary paths.
Failure of both paths (double path failure) is indicated by the red critical icon and a speci
c noti
cation
message. The noti
cation message differs based on whether the failure occurs while running or upon
booting the system (
Figure 57
).
Figure 57 Noti

A double path failure that occurs while running results in the critical alert
Fibre Channel Paths
Failed for Lun, ulid <numerical LUN id number> wwnn <numerical wwnn>

A double path failure that occurs upon booting the system results in the critical alert
Missing

.
This means the node can not communicate with the LUN at all. If the failed paths are on the primary
node, the whole storage pool containing that LUN is off-line; if the failed paths are on a secondary node,
the storage pool is on-line until reboot, but the storage pool is inaccessible from that node. In this case,
you can still get to the LUNs, but only from a different node.
To repair double path failure (assuming there has been no reboot during the failure):
1.
Determine the cause of the failures and repair them if needed.
