I managed to get vertical RSS grouping down each column of disks within the array, each column containing 8 disks, therefore 10 RSS groups for the array.
I have just added a further 8 disks (using slot 11 in each shelf) and the RSS groups have gone all over the place, with some shelves containing 2 disks in the same RSS group.
The main 'column' of disks affected seems to be column 6 (slot 6 in each shelf).
I want to acheive vertical RSS groups again, but understand there is no table or setting that can be manipulated to achieve this easily. I managed it before by ungrouping/grouping disks individually, but this was difficult and I can't remember exactly how I achieved it.
I have another 8 disks to add, once the initial 8 extra one's are added OK (these will populate slot 12 in each shelf).
There's loads of points waiting for anyone who can help with organising RSS groups !!
Regards
Simon

Re: EVA6000, RSS groups when adding disks
How did you group the new 8 disks ?
If they were all grouped in one go, then I would have thought they should have gone into a new RSS group...
Cheers,
Rob

Re: EVA6000, RSS groups when adding disks
Physically added the 8 disks into slot 11 on each shelf (with 5 mins gap). EVA is set to manually add disks. Then selected each disk and grouped it into the single disk group that we use.

Re: EVA6000, RSS groups when adding disks
I have an RSS analyzer I can run against the output of SSSU's "ls disk full xml". If you can attach it as a text file, I can take a look at it.
For reasons I don't want to explain it might take a few days to get back, though.

Re: EVA6000, RSS groups when adding disks
Rob - good call, my mistake - I'll do this next time. I've ungrouped the disks at fault and will to re-do the groups using the method you describe instead - many thanks.
Uwe - thanks for the offer, I might take you up on this depending on the outcome of the method described by Rob above.
Cheers
Simon

SolutionAfter you've ungrouped the disks, you should check that the RSSs are back where you expect them to be. As Uwe says, the placement of the RSS groups can be a bit unpredictable.
What you can do to reorganise things, if you can afford some downtime, is to move the disks. Label up where each disk is in each RSS group, then shut down the EVA. Move the disks so the RSSs are vertical again, then power back on. The usual caveat applies though - make sure you have a verified backup first !
Cheers,
Rob

Re: EVA6000, RSS groups when adding disks
I've now added 8 disks into the disk group using the add disks option as suggested, appears to have worked a treat.
Many thanks for your help Rob.
