Verify an aggregate

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The storage aggregate verify command verifies the two plexes of an aggregate. It compares the data in the two plexes to ensure that the plexes are identical. It can be used whenever the administrator needs to ensure that the two plexes are completely synchronized with each other. To view any discrepancies, use the following command:

event log show -message-name raid.mirror.verify.mismatch

Parameters

-aggregate <aggregate name> - Aggregate

This parameter specifies the aggregate to be verified. If no aggregate is specified then the action specified by the parameter -action will be taken on all the aggregates.

-action {start|stop|resume|suspend|status} - Action

This parameter specifies the action to be taken. The possible actions are:

  • start - Starts a verify.

  • stop - Permanently stops a verify. A stopped verify cannot be resumed.

  • resume - Resumes a suspended verify.

  • suspend - Suspends a verify.

  • status - Displays the current status of a verify.

[-plex-to-fix <text>] - Plex to be Corrected in Case of Mismatches

This parameter specifies the name of a plex to fix in case the two plexes of the aggregate do not match. The default behavior is to log any discrepancies instead of fixing them.

Note This parameter is only applicable when the command is used to start a verify.

Examples

The following example starts a verify on an aggregate named aggr1.

cluster1::> storage aggregate verify -aggregate aggr1 -action start

The following example queries the status of a verify on an aggregate named aggr1.

cluster1::> storage aggregate verify -aggregate aggr1 -action status
    Aggregate:aggr1, Is Suspended:false, Percentage Completed:19.03%

The following example starts a verify on all the aggregates.

cluster1::> storage aggregate verify -action start
