stm

[MKR_1]

I got a disk failure message from EMS.The disk is part of the disk array HP A5277A.Problem is I dont see the disks part of the diskarray displayed in the system map of stm.
Please advice how could I run a stm report on the particular disk

hi,


check /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log for EMS messages,


grep EMS /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

if you find an entry. and them execute the command from resmon

Thats already done.My question here is why the system map in stm is not displaying the disks in the disk array

[Michal Kapalka (mikap)]

hi,

maybe you don't have it configured,

what type of FISK array do you have ??

is it FC60 ???

Yes FC60

IIRC you can select the disk controller and run a certain tool from STM.


But better to use "amdsp" to get the status.

Hi Mike

Please let me know if anything to be configured

[Torsten.]

As said, use "amdsp"!!!

Hi Torsten

Thanks for that.I am just curious to know why the disks are not getting displayed in stm in this particular,since I am able to see them in other server with the same STM version.

Really?

I would assume the disks of an array are invisible to the OS (e.g. ioscan, stm, etc.), because they are "hidden" by the array controller. At least this is true for all arrays I know.

For exactly this reason there are special tools for all kind of arrays.
