MSA 2000 Drive 2TB SAS drive no lights SMU shows everything okay.
Hello, recently swapped out a faulty drive on a MSA 2000 storage array, the SMU shows everything is working fine, but on the rack there are no lights on the drive, when i select it in SMU under the graphical view i get the UID blue light on the front so it is connected. The RAID has been reinitialized when the drive was first installed.
Any suggestions, if SMU reports everything is okay should i leave it?
Many Thanks

Re: MSA 2000 Drive 2TB SAS drive no lights SMU shows everything okay.
I see 12 disks in use by vdisk and OK, so obviously all drives are working?
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: MSA 2000 Drive 2TB SAS drive no lights SMU shows everything okay.
It is your choice.
Either shutdown the array or pull the drive live. Insecpt or realign the lightpipe. If pulled live, reinsert it, it will go to a leftover status. Clear the metadata of this drive, make it a spare and the array will rebuild.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
