For VA7410/7400 and FC10.

You can check disks status with armdsp -a and with STM commands-cstm,mstm and xstm.

to reset, I would shutdown the system and shutdown SAN. Then bring up SAN and then the system.

1. For VA7410/VA7410
do you have command view for va?
if do you have run armdsp command
if not, used serial cable connect to rs232 at controller VA. the command is vfpdsp

for FC60 using amdsp command


2. For reset VA, using armmgr
Please note. you must reset one by one controller, if you reset both controller, you can make your system lost the VA disk.


Thanks
freddy

Shalom,

The VA has a console of some kind and can be used to check the disks.

mstm,cstm,xstm may be more useful because it deals with how the operating system is relating to the disks.

Steven,

Which console for VA ?

My problem is that I have reseted (using the push button) some disks and they are not seen by the OS any more.

LEDs are orange.. and can not see the associated VG on the server.
