rp5430 Health check

[Sakhile]

Hello

How do i do a health check on a rp5430. To check if any disks have io errors. If there is a faulty dimm or if a fan has failed and any other problem that there might be on the machine.

Thanks in advance

good morning!!

If you take a look at the output of cstm, that should give you all the information you're looking for. Run as follows:

# cstm
cstm>sall (for select all)
cstm>info
cstm>il (for information log)

when it starts scrolling, type 'q' for quit, then 'sa' for save as. Give it path and filename, (ie, /tmp/cstm.out)

Exit out of cstm, and view that output file.

Hope that helps.

What command would i use if i only wanted to check for disk errors

Hi,

first check whether disk is claimed or not using
#iosacn -fnC disk
u can use below commands for truobleshooting the disk problem
#diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
it should not show zero size. if it showing zero size means disk is faulty
dd to check that there are no I/O errors for the disks
#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0 of=/dev/null bs=1024

Also u can compare the output of two commands
#strings /etc/lvmtab
#ioscan -fnC disk
for missing disk
some times disks(lun) will not be visible to server that time there may be the problem in FC card
u can check it using
#ioscan -fnC fc

Hiya Sakhile!!

You could just 'choose' disk when looking at cstm. Check the man pages for that.

If you open up stm, it will give you a more graphical representation.
