Two disk bad on Raid array.

Sachin Patel — Thu, 12 Jul 2001 16:32:42 GMT

Hi
We have raid box. One disk has red light and one disk has no light. and all other disk has red flashing light. Disks are good because I replace the disk which has no light. System boots up ok without vg01 i.e raid.
Is it bad?

I can't do vgchange. I can see the disk when I do the ioscan. to rebuilding the file system is no problem but how? because pvcreate says can query physical /dev/dsk/????.

What hardware are you using? FC60? SAN?

Try a "vgdisplay -v vg01|more" you should see your disk as a primary or alternate link. Then run "lvdisplay -v /dev/vg01/lvol1 |grep ?"
substitute your logical volume using this disk that appears bad for lvol1. If there is a problem mounting or vgchanging the volume group you probably have some ????? where the name of the disk should be. In other words lost data for that logical volume/volume group.
