Monitoring System Status
157
Model – Enclosure model number
Version – Expander Controller software version
WWN – Enclosure node World Wide Name
For a drive the following information is displayed.
Drive Status – Up if operational or Down if failed.
Encl – Number of the enclosure containing the drive.
Slot – Number of the drive slot in the enclosure.
Mfr – Drive manufacturer.
Model – Drive model number.
Size – Drive size in Gbyte.
Type – Drive architecture (SATA or SAS).
Serial # – Drive serial number.
Part Of Vdisk – Different information depending on the drive’s status:
If used in a virtual disk, the virtual disk name.
If used as a spare, the type of spare.
If unused, Available.
If contains leftover metadata, Leftover. A Manage user can return leftover
drives to available status; see “Clearing Metadata From Leftover Disk Drives”
on page 136.
Enclosure View is Unavailable
If the system is unable to communicate with a drive enclosure or its drives, a
message notifies you that there is an invalid enclosure or drive configuration, or that
the display of drives by enclosure is unavailable.
In this situation the drive information is displayed in list format without enclosure
information instead of in graphical format. This can occur for the following reasons:
A drive has been recently added or removed, and the data reported by the
individual drives has not yet been fully synchronized with the configuration data
reported by the EMP.
All paths to the enclosure have been disconnected.
Enclosure polling has been suspended (the rate is set to zero), which can be done
only by a service technician.
In these situations, there might be a short period where the displayed information is
unpredictable. However, the display corrects itself once the environment stabilizes.
