Hi All
I have a va7410. In the Master disk array [ conroller unit] I have a disk that is is not visible in the commandview or using the armdsp command. The disk lightis green but its not blinking. I replaced it thinking its a fault. Still the disk has not been identified.
The array status indicates good.
any idea.
Thanks
faizer

Please post a

# armdsp -a

What is the slot of the questionable disk?

Connect to serial port on controller and check disk status, armdsp -d

The serial command is

# vfpdsp -d

or just

# dsp -d

but "armdsp -a" issued from the OS gives much more informaion.
