PV Status unavailable and stale LVs

Greetings,

I have one system "HP-UX HTGB4 B.11.11 U 9000/785 2015708594 unlimited-user license" which is reporting disk issues.
After running vgdisplay -v vg00  i can see some LVs in stale state and also one PV in unavailable state

I also detected some errors in syslog

Apr  9 10:30:40 HTGB4 vmunix: SCSI: Unrecoverred Deferred Error (dev = 0x1f036000, lba = 0x13328f2)
Apr  9 10:30:40 HTGB4 vmunix: SCSI: Async write error -- dev: b 31 0x036000, errno: 5, resid: 4096,

Apr  9 10:30:43 HTGB4 vmunix: SCSI: Async write error -- dev: b 31 0x036000, errno: 5, resid: 4096,



running pvdisplay against the disk shows a lot of stale extents

All LVs are mirrored :

lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol[0-9] | grep -i mirror
Mirror copies               1
Mirror copies               1
Mirror copies               1
Mirror copies               1


so system is up and running even with this disk unavailable

I also executed a diagnose test and exercise in SCTM and reported no errors.

At the moment i only have screenshots of ioscan and diskinfo commands. I cant upload them it says attached file extension is not valid but they are.. whatever  Ioscan reports CLAIMED for both disks and diskinfo reports the info of disk with the size correct.

I also executed a dd command on disk and i got I/O error :

dd if=/dev/rdsk/c3t6d0 of=/dev/null bs=1024 

dd read error: I/O error
0+0 records in
0+0 records out


It seems that disk is dead ?

What else i can check to confirm  ?  Thanks !

Re: PV Status unavailable and stale LVs

Greetings Donna,

Thanks for your feedback. 

Ok this is what i was suspecting also .

Im checking this "When Good Disks Go Bad: Dealing with Disk Failures Under LVM" document . 

One simple question, how can i see if disk is hot swappable or not ?

Re: PV Status unavailable and stale LVs

What server model?

>> HP-UX HTGB4 B.11.11 U 9000/785

This is a workstation. Internal disks are most of the times not hot swap, but depends on model.


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
