Attention:
If you do not maintain single-path connectivity from the controllers to the stack
when recabling the stack to bypass the disk shelf you are removing, you could fail the system
with a multidisk panic.
Steps
1. Verify that your system configuration is
Multi-Path HA
,
Multi-Path
,
Quad-path HA
, or
Quad-path
:
sysconfig
You run this command from the nodeshell of either controller. It might take up to a minute for the
system to complete discovery.
The configuration is listed in the
System Storage Configuration
field.
Note:
For FAS2600 series systems with external storage, the output is displayed as
Mixed-
Path HA
for an HA pair, or
Mixed-Path
for a single-controller configuration because the
internal storage is cabled differently than the external storage. For an HA pair, the internal
storage is cabled as single-path HA and the external storage is cabled as multipath HA. For a
single-controller configuration, the internal storage is cabled as single-path and the external
storage is cabled as multipath.
2. Verify that the disk drives in the disk shelves you are removing have no aggregates (are spares)
and ownership is removed, by completing the following substeps:
a. Enter the following command from the clustershell of either controller:
storage disk show -shelf shelf_number
b. Check the output to verify there are no aggregates on the disk drives in the disk shelves you
are removing.
Disk drives with no aggregates have a dash in the
Container Name
column.
c. Check the output to verify that ownership is removed from the disk drives on the disk shelves
you are removing.
Disk drives with no ownership have
unassigned
in the
Container Type
column.
Note:
If you have failed disk drives in the shelf you are removing, they have
broken
in the
Container Type
column. (Failed disk drive do not have ownership.)
Example
The following output shows disk drives on the disk shelf being removed (disk shelf 3) are in a
correct state for removing the disk shelf. Aggregates have been removed on all of the disk drives
in disk shelf 3; therefore, a dash appears in the
Container Name
column for each disk drive.
Ownership has been removed on two disk drives; therefore,
unassigned
appears in the
Container Type
column. And two disk drives are failed; therefore,
broken
appears in the
Container Type
column:
cluster::> storage disk show -shelf 3
Usable Disk Container Container
