Hi ,

Looking at the post, asume that you failed disk and it has been recovered, this could be some Controller Intermediate Problem,

ioscan -fnC disk --> Can you see all your disk claimed ..?

ioscan -fnH 0/3/1/0 --> does it show's claimed..?

how about EVA 4000 storage Health check..?

Thanks,
Johnson

When you ad a lun to your system your eva server is giving a hickup (we had it also some years a go, ho I remember there is no fix for it, but is can not harm (as long the failed links are recovered whitin a few seconds.

hi

these are the auopath message for the Path 0xbc140400 that is the disk device path for the disk 140400 as minor no.

just can see this from the /dev/dsk/*

#ll /dev/dsk/* | grep 140400

and see which disk ia that .

do a pvdisplay on that to know what VG that belong to :

#pvdislay -v /dev/dsk/cxtydz

knowing the VG name try doing vgdisplay -v to know for the alternate links of that PV

#vgdosplay -v vgXY

this can be a simple path prob that is FC connected in that path prob ..

but these are not that worrisome as a path is recovering also assume that u are using securepath for act/act disk arrays (hope so)

u can howver log a case right...

Regards
Sujit
