disk error?

this error occur sporadically. I conduct /opt/resmon/bin/resdata -M 1533300606
. the result is like this /storage/events/disks/default/0_0_0_3_0.6.0
/storage/events/disks/default/1_0_0_3_0.6.0

these disks are root disk.
I examine the disk by pvdisplay,mstm..
but I didn't any faults.

Re: disk error?

Hi Zungwon,

Try to check with ioscan command, to find out whether the disk with CLAIMED or NOHW status.

# ioscan -nfCdisk

Try also to capture the complete message from /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log (you can post this file also, so we can get a clear picture about the problem on your system).

You can try to use 'dd' command also to check the realibility of the disk :

# dd if=/dev/dsk/cXtYdZ of=/dev/null bs=1024k

NOTE : change cXtYdZ with the appropriate disk device file name.

If you saw the output from 'dd' command above with I/O error, the disk is not good (need to replace).

Here is the good information for your reference :

Hope this information can help you.

Re: disk error?

You can use the check listed by the user in the previous response.

It looks like what you have there is a situation where disk_em is being restarted, but not related to a drive error.

Re: disk error?

Hi Zungwon,
What version of OnlineDiags do you have? There were some problems in an earlier version that would cause disk_em to restart. If you have a current version with the latest patch that should not be happening.

Also, are the two events happening at the same time - the error for the specified disk and the restart? What events are you getting logged in /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log by disk_em?
