Re: Cannot create VG using drives in JBOB DS2400
Installing CommandView SDM and formatting the drives did the trick.
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Cannot create VG using drives in JBOB DS2400
I have also been experiencing the same problems so I thought I'd try the Command View Util.
I have installed Command View, and when I run "CVUI" the simple interface comes up and say's "getting for devices", then I'm left with a list of options:
1 Refresh
a App menu
x Exit
It appears that the utility cannot see my disk array attached?? Because from what I can gather the util scans for arrays connected and then brings up a sub menu for that array.
However when I do an ioscan -fnC disk all the disks in the array are "CLAIMED" and they all have the special files with them (eg: /dev/dsk/c7t0d0 and /dev/rdsk/c7t0d0).
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards.

Re: Cannot create VG using drives in JBOB DS2400
Here's what I followed to format the DS2405 drives:
1. Insert the drive in the DS2405 chassis
2. "discover" the drive
# ioscan -fnC disk
3. Create device files
# insf -e
4. Discover the DS2405 if not already "visible"
# armdiscover
5. To display DS2405 information
# JBODdsp -I
6. Format the drive - command line
# JBODfmt -f /dev/dsk/c8t4d0
-or- if already formatted
# JBODfmt -foverride /dev/dsk/c8t4d0
7. Format the drive using cvui
select drive number
select "Disk"
select "Format"
You probably need to "Discover" the disk array before running cvui. If that does not work, you may have run into a problem I had recently when I upgraded Command View SDM from v1.06 to v1.08 (v1.07 applies as well...), which required a firmware upgrade for the drives and Link Control Cards (LCCs) BEFORE the CVSDM upgrade. What version of CVSDM did you install? What firmware version are you running?
You also may want to consult the CVSDM JBOD manual titled "HP StorageWorks Command View SDM for Disk Systems" for current info. The download page is at: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?contentType=SupportManual&locale=en_US&docIndexId=179911&taskId=101&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=64112
Good luck,
Steve
