Solution Type Technical Instruction Sure Solution 1012994.1 : Sun StorEdge[TM] 3510 FC Array: SCCLI loop references - SES view from loop A
PreviouslyPublishedAs 217792 Description The sccli command, "show bypass device " displays the bypass status of all disks and SES devices on a specified loop. The SES device in the top slot of the chassis is connected to Loop A, which is the first drive channel. The bottom SES device is connected to Loop B, which is the second drive channel. This may lead to an incorrect assumption that loop A is always associated with channel 2 or the top controller slot of the array. While drive channels are fixed physical associations (channel 2 / top slot and channel 3 / bottom slot) , loop references are relative . sccli> show loop-map channel 2 15 devices found in loop map === Channel Loop Map retrieved from CH 2 ID 12 === AL_PA SEL_ID SEL_ID TYPE ENCL_ID SLOT (hex) (hex) (dec) ----- ----- ----- ---- ------ ---- CE 0F 15 RAID N/A N/A <<<< lower controller acting as primary .

The SES processor always thinks it is on loop A. In this example, the show disks command indicates disk 34 is BAD: sccli> show disks Ch Id Size Speed LD Status IDs Rev ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 34 N/A N/A NONE BAD SEAGATE ST373307FSUN72G 0207 S/N 3HZ13X4400007340 The show redundancy command displays the Primary Controller in the bottom slot: sccli> show redundancy Primary controller serial number: 8003752 Primary controller location: Lower Redundancy mode: Active-Active Redundancy status: Enabled Secondary controller serial number: 8000596 Looking at the output from the show bypass command for this bad drive, channel 2 SES, disk 34 is bypassed on loop B and unbypassed on loop a. But according to channel 3 SES, it appears as the opposite of channel 2. sccli> show bypass device channel 2 loop a CH ID TYPE ENCL LOOP BYP-STATUS ATTRIBUTES -- -- ---- ---- ---- ---------- SHF------- 2 34 DISK JBOD LOOP-A Unbypassed --F sccli> show bypass device channel 2 loop b CH ID TYPE ENCL LOOP BYP-STATUS ATTRIBUTES -- -- ---- ---- ---- ---------- SHF------- 2 34 DISK JBOD LOOP-B Bypassed -HF sccli> show bypass device channel 3 loop a CH ID TYPE ENCL LOOP BYP-STATUS ATTRIBUTES -- -- ---- ---- ---- ---------- SHF------- 3 34 DISK JBOD LOOP-A Bypassed -HF sccli> show bypass device channel 3 loop b CH ID TYPE ENCL LOOP BYP-STATUS ATTRIBUTES -- -- ---- ---- ---- ---------- SHF------- 3 34 DISK JBOD LOOP-B Unbypassed --F Looking at the bypass state, be aware Loop A may not always be associated with the top slot (channel 2) and may be represented from the bottom slot and vice versa for loop B. This is because what is shown is the view from the SES processor which always considers its view as loop A, irrespective of the slot. Product Sun StorageTek 3510 FC Array Internal Comments If a device is bypassed, the Attributes returned values include S, F, or H. * An S means the device was bypassed due to a Sun StorEdge CLI command. * An F means a drive fault caused the bypass. * An H means the device was bypassed due to a hardware problem (no signal was present). 3510, bypass, loop Previously Published As 91548 Change History Date: 2007-12-22 User Name: 31620 Action: Approved Comment: Verified Metadata - ok Verified Keywords - ok Verified still correct for audience - currently set to contract Audience left at contract as per FvF at http://kmo.central/howto/content/voyager-contributor-standards.html Checked review date - currently set to 2008-12-17 Checked for TM - ok as presented Normalized keyword not present Publishing under the current publication rules of 18 Apr 2005: Version: 4 Date: 2007-12-22 User Name: 31620 Action: Accept Comment: Version: 0 Attachments This solution has no attachment |
