raid.mcc.heal.aggrs.canceled

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a 'metrocluster heal -phase aggregates' operation is canceled due to the presence of left-behind high-availability (HA) aggregates.

Corrective Action

Giveback still in progress can cause this condition. To see if this is the case, execute 'storage failover show-giveback'. If it is in progress, wait until it completes and retry the 'metrocluster heal -phase aggregates' command. If giveback is not in progress then execute a 'storage failover giveback -ofnode' from the node currently hosting the left-behind aggregate. After this is complete, retry the 'metrocluster heal -phase aggregates' command.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s homed on %s is a %s, canceling heal aggregates operation.

Parameters

aggregate (STRING): Name of the aggregate
home_owner_name (STRING): Name of the node home to the left behind aggregate.
reason (STRING): Activity that is preventing heal aggregates operation.

raid.mcc.heal.roots.canceled

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a 'metrocluster heal -phase root-aggregates' operation is canceled because a switched over root aggregate is busy with another configuration operation. An ongoing configuration operation can cause this condition.

Corrective Action

Wait a few minutes, then retry the 'metrocluster heal -phase root-aggregates' command.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s is busy with another configuration operation. Canceling heal root-aggregates operation.

Parameters

aggregate (STRING): Name of the aggregate.
reason (STRING): Activity that is preventing the heal root-aggregates operation.

raid.mcc.ISL.down

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster(tm) DR operation other than disaster switchover is canceled because remote site storage is not visible; this can happen if the Inter-Switch Links are down.

Corrective Action
  1. Verify remote cluster connectivity. Use the "storage switch add -switch-ipaddress <switch-ip-address>" command to start monitoring the switches if not already so. Then use the "storage switch show -port" and "storage switch show -san-config" commands to verify FC connectivity to the remote site. 2. Retry the operation. If the error persists, contact technical support for assistance.

Syslog Message

%s was canceled because remote site storage is not visible; Inter-Switch Links might be down.

Parameters

operation (STRING): The DR operation which was canceled.

raid.mcc.leftBehindSpare

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when a spare disk is not returned to its original owner in a switchback operation.

Corrective Action

Run the 'metrocluster switchback' command to return the disk to its original owner.

Syslog Message

Disk %s was left behind during switchback.

Parameters

disk (STRING): Name of the disk that was left behind.

dr_home_owner_id (LONGINT): NVRAM system ID of the disk's disaster recovery(DR) home owner.

raid.mcc.nso.canceled

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster negotiated switchover is canceled due to activity in RAID on a volume or aggregate.

Corrective Action

Reissue the 'metrocluster switchover' command after the pending or in-progress operation on the aggregate is complete. The 'override-vetoes' option may be used to proceed without waiting for the pending or in-progress operation to complete.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s is %s, canceling negotiated switchover.

Parameters

aggregate (STRING): Name of the aggregate.
reason (STRING): Activity that is preventing negotiated switchover.

raid.mcc.nso.dr.leftbehind

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster switchover is canceled due to the presence of left behind aggregates from a switchback operation.

Corrective Action

If the aggregate is not in a "failed" or "limbo" state, issue the 'metrocluster switchback' command to return the aggregate to its original owner. Reissue the 'metrocluster switchover' command.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s was left behind from a switchback operation, canceling negotiated switchover.

Parameters

aggregate (STRING): Name of the aggregate that was left behind.
aggregate_uuid (STRING): Universal Unique Identifier of the aggregate.

raid.mcc.nso.ha.leftbehind

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster switchover is canceled due to the presence of left behind aggregates from a giveback operation.

Corrective Action

If the aggregate is not in a "failed" or "limbo" state, issue the 'storage failover giveback' command to return the aggregate to its original owner. Reissue the 'metrocluster switchover' command.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s was left behind from a giveback operation, canceling negotiated switchover.

raid.mcc.remote.storage.down

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster(tm) DR operation other than disaster switchover is canceled because remote site storage is not visible; this can happen if the FC or SAS links to the remote storage are down.

Corrective Action
  1. Verify remote cluster connectivity. Use the "fcp interface show" command to verify FC connectivity to the remote site. 2. Retry the operation. If the error persists, contact technical support for assistance.

Syslog Message

%s was canceled because remote site storage is not visible; FC or SAS links might be down.

Parameters

operation (STRING): The DR operation which was canceled.

raid.mcc.root.configError

Severity

ALERT

Description

This message occurs when the system detects a configuration error on the root aggregate in a MetroCluster(tm) configuration. Remote disks and local disks are not being used in the proper configuration. One plex should comprise only disks from the local pool, Pool0, and the other plex should comprise only disks from the remote pool, Pool1. If the inter-site communication fails between the MetroCluster sites, access to remote disks will be lost. This creates an elevated risk of local site downtime.

Corrective Action

Replace all remote (Pool1) disks in the local plex with local (Pool0) spares. In the remote plex, replace all local (Pool0) disks with remote (Pool1) spares. Use the 'storage disk replace' command to initiate disk replacements.

Syslog Message

In the root aggregate, %s

Parameters

error_message (STRING): Description of which plexes have disks from the wrong pool.

raid.mcc.root.unmirrored

Severity

ALERT

Description

This message occurs when the root aggregate is not mirrored in a MetroCluster(tm) configuration.

Corrective Action

Mirror the root aggregate by using the 'storage aggregate mirror' command.

Syslog Message

The root aggregate is not mirrored. This aggregate must be mirrored in a MetroCluster configuration or a switchover of this site might not be possible in case of a disaster.

Parameters

(None).

raid.mcc.switchbackCanceled

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a MetroCluster switchback is canceled due to activity in RAID on a disaster partner volume or aggregate.

Corrective Action

Reissue the 'metrocluster switchback' command after the pending or in-progress operation on the DR partner aggregate is complete. The override-vetoes option may be used to proceed without waiting for the pending or in-progress operation to complete.

Syslog Message

DR aggregate %s is %s, canceling switchback.

Parameters

vol (STRING): Name of the aggregate
reason (STRING): Activity that is preventing DR switchback

raid.mcc.switchbackSummary

Parameters

switched_back_aggr_count (INT): Count of aggregates that were switched back.
left_behind_aggr_count (INT): Count of switched over aggregates that remain after switchback.
