System error

I have A SAN network with two N -Class servers running a oracle cluster application. I am suspect a disk failure with a couple of issues affecting the FTP service.

Did you execute the command as it is stated in the error?

/opt/resmon/bin/resdata -R 174850049 -r /StorageAreaNetwork/events/S
AN_Monitor/DiskArray -n 174850055 -a

You have CVSDM running. Run the array client and check your array for disk failures. Depending on what array you have the command is under /opt/sanmgr/commandview/client/sbin

Also, look at your array and see if there are any fault/service lights and disks that have fault lights on.

Which of the command should i try to query the array. What do also say concerning the FTP session close.

Alternatively you could check ioscan -fn o/p to see if there is any NO_HW entries??

Have a look at the following thread:

Also confirm that your macro is not connecting/disconnecting multiple times.

whats the ftp version on the server? Try installing a different version which is working fine on other servers if the above recommendations doesn't help.

Try the armdsp command. It depends on what array you have.

The FTP messages are normal. You may want to reduce the loging level for ftpd in /etc/inetd.conf
