Hi,

We are getting the following ignite warnings.

Does anybody know what they mean?

Initial though is a large number of defunct disk devices..

Run ioscan -kfnC disk|grep NO_HW. If you see these OLD non connected devices either fix them or remove them.

[John J Burke]

Is there a way to disable these ignite warnings?

[Fabio Ettore]

Hi,

Ignite-UX doesn't have a its own option to disable these messages, rather the system admin has to solve the indicated problems.
In this instance you have to solve defunct disks problem. So please check ioscan output as already mentioned and look for NO_HW devices. Also check those disks indicated in Ignite-UX session are in /etc/lvmtab no longer. I suppose you could have to issue some vgreduce -f ...

Best regards,
Fabio

These are hdlm driver files so they are not in lvmtab

Each disk still has two paths, these are required for hdlm, is there anyway to make ignite ignore these?

[Fabio Ettore]

Hi John,

I think there is no way to do Ignite-UX to ignore those messages, anyway consider they are just WARNINGS and no ERRORS. If you know what those messages come from then I wouldn't be concerned about them.

Best regards,
Fabio

Hi,

Do this for one NO_HW then you can implement this commands.

ioscan -fn | grep NO_HW | awk '{ print $2 }' > tmp1

for i in `cat tmp1`
do
rmsf -H $i
done

Or

You have to reboot the server.

There was no solution to this issue, this was an incompatibility between the version of hdlm and hp.

Tickets escalated with both vendors could not resolve.
