I put in this va7410 just a few weeks ago and from the beginning the leftmost drive on the first unit (with the controllers) has an orange light on. armdsp gives the warning about a single path of access.
Also, my alternative paths don't show up when I use sam to look at my volume groups.
Armdsp -a says that the controllers are ok and the drives are all ok.
I've looked at my fiber and I'm 99% sure I have it wired up correctly. I traded out the fiber for another (each in turn) and no change there so I don't think it is a bad fiber.
RG1 shows up with 16 disks and RG2 shows 14 disks, so all disks are accounted for (although somewhat lopsided, is that normal?)
I have tried swapping out the amber-lighted disk and that didn't make any difference: after everything settled down I was back to the same state.
This hardware was in replacement of a va7100 and is used.. so who knows if the configuration is tweaked somehow.
Where should I start?
Solved! Go to Solution.

#logprn -a
the start date should be the date before you think the problem started.

Re: va7410 non redundant disk access
WARNING: The configuration of the subsystem is such that one or more drives has only a single path of access to it.
and that one drive has an orange indicator on it.
I'm starting to think one of my I/O cards or cables must be bad. Is there a simple configuration change that might have an impact on the single-path issue?

Re: va7410 non redundant disk access
Have you tried removing the disk M/D1 ?
This could be the disk only have a single path accessing to it from only one of the controllers.
