Syslog Message

WAFL inconsistent: Mount failed for volume %s%s%s%s.

wafl.failed.mount.bad.fsid

Severity

EMERGENCY

Description

This message occurs when DATA ONTAP® cannot mount a volume because of a hardware failure in the disk subsystem. The failure invalidates and clears the unique identifier (FSID) that was assigned to the volume at the time of creation, resulting in an invalid FSID value of 0 and making the volume inaccessible for clients. The volume will be left in the offline state without any data loss.

Corrective Action

Check for disk failures and replace any failed disks. A subsequent mount call for the volume, either from the boot path or an admin level online request, would be able to read a valid FSID now, thus solving this problem. For more information or assistance, contact NetApp technical support.

Syslog Message

Invalid file system identifier (FSID): Mount failed for volume %s%s%s%s.

Parameters

owner (STRING): Volume owner.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique identifier for the volume when the volume name itself is insufficient.
