hi


this means that /dev/dsk/c4t0d7 is not being sensed by the system.

do

#ioscan -fnCdisk
see if the disk /dev/dsk/c4t0d7 shows NO_HW

#diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c4t0d7
see if size shows 0 Kbytes.

see
using dd read the blocks from disk.

#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c4t0d7 of=/dev/null


see if that fails.


if the disk is failed which seems like that it has, you will need to replace that

Hi,

Try this thread http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=926691

[Admin: The above links are no longer valid]

Check this doc, you can see the vgchange and vgdisplay error and what to do to resolve

[Tingli]

Since more than one disks failed, then if those failed disks are in SAN, it might be the connection of HBA to switch to SAN has problems. If they are internal disks then the system hardware has an issue.

It need more information to figure out the real reason for the failure.

Hi ,

If i replace the disk can i get the data .

[sujit kumar singh]

Hi


Tingli has made a valid point. These 4 disknames seems to be 4 paths of the same disk and the disk belongs to the VG /dev/vgmost which is showing Cur PV as 8 and act PV as 1 , that seems to be a part of /dev/vgmost.

Please use bdf and lvdisplay to see if all the LVs in the VG are mounted and intact.
from lvdisplay -v on all the LVs in the /dev/vgmost try to locate if the LVs had some extents on that PV /dev/dsk/c4t0d7.


Also might be that LUN has been deassigned from the Storage Side and is no more presented to the server.

This is so because this seems that all 4 paths are inactive, you can also check what is the status of the FC Interface , or this is a FC cable gone?

#ioscan -fnCfc
this shall show FC interfaces like /dev/fcd0 and /dev/fcd1
#fcmsutil /dev/fcd0
#fcmsutil /dev/fcd1

see that you can see Online and WWN N-port ID and Port ID.

Might be a broken cable also.

Will be good if you can post the O/Ps for

#ioscan -fnCdisk
#ioscan -fnCfc
#fcmsutil /dev/fcd0
#fcmsutil /dev/fcd1
#vgdisplay -v

Check the event.log for any error

Also provide the output of the following

hi Guru,

Can you also please give these O/Ps
#strings /etc/lvmtab
#ioscan -fnCdisk
#vgdisplay -v /dev/vgmost
#vgcfgresore -l -n /dev/vgmost
#dd if=/dev/dsk/c4t0d7 of=/dev/null count=10000

Reason is that the VG /dev/vgmost is having Cur PV as 6 and Act PV as 7.
/dev/dsk/c4t0d7 belong to this VG.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
but please give the Above O/pS.

[gurudatta_1]

Hi sujit,

I am attaching the requried data.

Regards
Gurudatta N.R

[Avinash20 · Accepted solution]

Please confirm that you do not have any error in event.log for

disk 18 0/2/1/0.1.0.39.0.0.7 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP A6218A
/dev/dsk/c4t0d7 /dev/rdsk/c4t0d7


If no errors, try to restore the LVM structures on

# vgcfgrestore -n vgmost /dev/rdsk/c4t0d7

[gurudatta_1]

Hi Avinash,

I not getting any error in the event.log file

[sujit kumar singh]

Hi Guru,
As avinash says that vgcfgrestore can be done to bring back that /dev/dsk/c4t7d0 into the VG /dev/vgmost is correct.
i made a typo in the Earlier post.

That is
#vgcfgrestore -l -n /dev/vgmost.

this shows(lists) the disks(PVs) that are a part of the VG /dev/vgmost as per the VG Config File /etc/lvmconf/vgmost.conf.


From the O/ps sent this seems.
1)the disk /dev/dsk/c4t0d7 has the alternate paths as /dev/dsk/c6t0d7 /dev/dsk/c8t0d7 /dev/dsk/c10t0d7.
2)fcmsutil and the status of the other VGs tell that the FC card is working fine.
3)this is a 60 GB LUN assigned from the storage.
4)diskinfo and dd show that you can read and write to the disk as OK.
5)ioscan shows that the disk is available and CLAIMED.
6)strings /etc/lvmtab shows that the disk was configured as a part of the VG /dev/vgmost.
Are not you facing any issues with the other LVs of the VG /dev/vgmost?

If you are not facing any problem with the LVs of this VG (One PV gone entirely 60 GB in size and you are not having problems with the LVs in the VG!!.. might be there had been Mirrors of the LVs?
1) please run a lvdisplay -v on all the LVs of the VG /dev/vgmost and give the O/pS) Can you please try and give the O/Ps
2) #vgcfgrestore -l -n /dev/vgmost
try this one and also give the O/Ps
3) #pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c4t0d7.

Also check once from the Storage team if they have
4) misassigned this LUN also to some Other system.
5)ask them to check the health and assisnment of this LUN from the storage side.
6)or might be this was temporarily assigned from the storage to this server.


yes, the solution as suggested by Avinash is
vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vgmost /dev/rdsk/c4t0d7

but think once please check the above said information also.

7) Please check the Event Logs also at /etc/opt/resmon/log/event.log for any incident regarding to this LUN.

Please answer the Queries as asked as 1,2,3,4
5,6 and 7

ioscan".

First check /etc/lvmtab with strings command.

Check the lvmtab entries are the same with error pv names.

If not same,

do take backup of "/etc/lvmtab" and do "vgscan".

check new lvmtab entry with strings command and compare new lvmtab with the old lvmtab.

Now try with vgdisplay or ioscan.
