wafl.vol.autoSize.shrink.cap

Severity

NOTICE

Description

As a volume grows, there can be an automatic increase in the number of files that it is allowed to contain, but that number is unchanged as the volume shrinks. This number of files puts a constraint on the minimum size of the volume when it is automatically shrunk. This message indicates that the automatic shrinking of a volume did not reach the configuration's minimum size because it is constrained by the number of files the volume is allowed to contain.

Corrective Action

Consider using the command "volume modify <volume-name> -files <new-files-value>" to decrease the number of files that the volume is allowed to contain. You can view the current value of the number of files by using the command "volume show <volume-name> -fields files".

Syslog Message

Volume Autosize: Volume '%s%s%s' could not be auto shrunk below %s to recover space.

Parameters

vol (STRING): Volume name.

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when an attempt is made to apply the space guarantee for a flexible volume, but there is not enough space in the aggregate to do so. The volume will be mounted, but subsequent writes to the volume might fail if the volume's aggregate becomes full.

Corrective Action

Either increase the size of the corresponding aggregate by adding disks, or decrease the total volume space requirements in the aggregate by shrinking or destroying one or more volumes.

Syslog Message

Space for volume %s%s is not guaranteed. %s of additional space is required to enable the guarantee.

Parameters

vol (STRING): Name of the volume whose space guarantee could not be applied.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): To uniquely identify the volume in cases where the volume name itself is insufficient.
short_by (STRING): Amount of additional space required in the volume.

wafl.vol.guarantee.stayoff

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when WAFL® would otherwise have attempted to enable a volume's space guarantee, but the last time it tried, an error was encountered (most likely due to insufficient space). This error was recorded in the volume's on-disk RAID label so that the same error would not be repeated on future mounts. The volume will be mounted. However, because the volume is not guaranteed, it is possible that subsequent writes to the volume could fail if the volume's aggregate becomes full.

Corrective Action

Determine the cause of the error the last time WAFL attempted to enable this guarantee, either through logs or by attempting to enable it again manually. Typically, the issue is a lack of space at mount time detected during boot, which can be resolved by increasing the size of the corresponding aggregate (by adding disks or by shrinking or destroying some of the aggregate's volumes). After the issue is resolved, manually attempt to re-enable the guarantee using the 'volume modify' command.

Syslog Message

The space guarantee for volume %s%s was not enabled because an error occurred the last time a guarantee was enabled on this volume.

Parameters

vol (STRING): Name of the volume.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Volume identifier.

wafl.vol.inode.space.usage

Severity

ERROR

Description

View the current value of the file threshold by using the command "volume show <volume-name> -fields files". If volume modify fails, increase volume size and try again.

Syslog Message

The file system on %s %s%s%s%s is currently using %d%% of the files that can be contained on the volume. The admin has configured the threshold for monitoring public inode usage as %d%%.

Parameters

type (STRING): Type of object (volume or aggregate).

Corrective Action

This condition cannot be fixed by file system repair mechanisms such as wafliron. The data is not lost, but it is inaccessible to the administrator. To access the data, contact NetApp technical support. Alternatively, the administrator can destroy the mirror volume by using the 'volume delete -vserver vserver_name -volume vol_name' command.

wafl.vol.runningOutOfInodes

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the system detects that a volume is close to reaching its limit on the number of files that it can contain.

Corrective Action

Consider using the "volume modify <volume-name> -files <new-files-value>" command to increase the number of files that the volume is allowed to contain. You can view the current value of the file threshold by using the "volume show <volume-name> -fields files" command.

Syslog Message

The file system on "%s %s%s%s%s" is using 80 percent or more of the files in %s inode space that can be contained on the volume.

Parameters

ino_type (STRING): Inode type
type (STRING): Type of object (volume or aggregate).
owner (STRING): Volume owner.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique volume identifier when the volume name alone is insufficient.

wafl.vol.setting.in.nvfailed.state

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the system detects an NVFAIL event in a volume and marks the volume as in-nvfailed-state.

Corrective Action

Access to the volume is restricted until you clear the NVFAIL state manually. See the Data Protection Online Backup and Recovery Guide.

Syslog Message

Volume %s%s%s is marked as in-nvfailed-state: %s.

Parameters

vol (STRING): Name of the volume.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): If the volume belongs to a Vserver, the Vserver's Universal Unique Identifier (UUID).
err (STRING): Error that caused the volume to be marked in in-nvfailed-state.
