Goal
DescriptionThe goal of this document is to provide some guidelines for replacing disk storage, in the Solaris[TM] environment.
Solution
Steps to FollowQuickstart Reference for Sun disk replacement:
CautionAny disk replacement should only be attempted by qualified service personnel, or with the assistance of a qualified person. This document is only intended as an introduction or reminder of the multiple software/hardware considerations that can affect a safe and successful disk replacement.
The full documentation should be consulted when anything is unclear -
Oracle Documentation Considerations
When planning to replace a disk, determine the
following:
1. Is the system in question
part of a
cluster?
Details for cluster environments are outside of the scope of this
document.
Reference Cluster documentation, or get assistance from Sun Support
Personnel.
2. Is the device a software
RAID device, or a hardware device?
You can tell this
by looking at the application that's using the path. This is
either a filesystem(UFS, ZFS, VxFS, SAMFS, QFS), or a raw
database.
Commands to
check:
Hardware
based disk device /dev/dsk/c#t#d#s#
Software RAID
device:/dev/md/(r)dsk/d# (Solaris Volume
Manager)
/dev/md/somemetasetname/(r)dsk/d#
/dev/vx/(r)dsk/somedg/somevol
(Symantec Veritas Volume
Manager)
/somepoolname
(ZFS)
NOTE: if a disk is being used for
raw access by a data base, it will not appear in mount or df -k.
Confirm this with a System administrator familiar with the
system.
- If the device is a software RAID device, you
will want to review the status of that device to discover the hardware
components of it. See the Software RAID section in this
document.
- If the device is a hardware RAID device, you will want to review the status of that device to discover the hardware component(s) that may have faulted. See the Hardware RAID section in this document.
- If neither, continue.
3. Is the device an internal or external disk device?
- If the device is an internal device you may want to review your hardware install guide and maintenance manual for your server, for replacement instructions.
- If the device is an external device, you may want to review your hardware install guide and maintenance manual for your array.
Software
RAIDZFSFor
replacement of devices that have been identified under ZFS, reference DocID:
1002753.1 How to Replace a Drive in
Solaris[TM] ZFS
As a quick reference, you
will want to check the following commands for device
status:
zpool list
zpool status -v
Solaris[TM] Volume Manager
For replacement of devices that have been identified under Solaris Volume Manager,
Reference: DocID: 1006196.1 Solaris[TM] Volume Manager software: Replacing Disks (Solaris[TM] 9 Operating System and above)
As a quick reference, you will want to check the following commands for device status:
metastat
metadb -i
Symantec[TM] Veritas Volume Manager
As a quick reference, you will want to check the following commands for device status:status:
vxdisk list - Lists disks, shows if they're under VxVM
control, shows their current state. The "error" state indicates that
the disk is not under VxVM control.
vxprint -ht - Lists volume configuration.
Hardware RAID
A1000/A3500FC/Raid Manager 6 (RM6)
For checking array health, use the RAID Manager 6 software, reference RAID Manager 6.2.2 User's Guide
As a quick reference, you will want to check the following commands:
Launches management GUI for the hardware raid controllers. The Recovery Guru application in the GUI is
extremely useful for handling failure events
Lists c#t#d# of logical disks available in hardware
/usr/sbin/osa/drivutil -l <c#t#d#>
List individual disks in logical disk volume.
/usr/sbin/osa/healthck -a
Show array hardware status
Sun StorEdge[TM] T3 and Sun StorEdge[TM] 6120 arrays
For checking array health, reference DocID: 1009745.1 Troubleshooting Sun StorEdge[TM] T3 Disk Failures
As a quick reference, you will want to check the following commands after logging into the array shell via telnet:
Field replaceable unit status
Field replaceable unit list
Volume status
Volume list
Process list (Example: logical volume construction or recovery)
Sun StorEdge 3310, Sun StorEdge 3510 FC Array
For checking array health, reference, DocID: 1008190.1 Troubleshooting Sun StorEdge[TM] 33x0/351x Disk Failures
As a quick reference, you will want to check the following commands:
For in-band management (through SCSI or FCAL interface)
sccli - Starts command line interface (cli) for array management.
sccli> help
Displays cli commands available.
sccli> show configuration
Shows array components status
sccli> show disks
display status of disks, note: faulted disks do not appear in the listing.
sccli> show events
display system log
sccli> show FRUs
list fru's; contains part numbers and serial numbers.
sccli> show logical-drives
display LUN's and LUN status; shows if spare is configured and any failed disks.
sccli> show redundancy-mode
displays controller status
