[zfs-discuss] Q: T2000: raidctl vs. zpool status
Hi all,
IHACWHAC (I have a colleague who has a customer - hello, if you''re
listening :-) who''s trying to build and test a scenario where he can
salvage the data off the (internal ?) disks of a T2000 in case the sysboard
and with it the on-board raid controller dies.
If I understood correctly, he replaces the motherboard, does some magic to
get the raid config back, but even when raidctl says "I''m
fine", zpool
complains that it cannot open one of the replicas:
# raidctl
RAID Volume RAID RAID Disk
Volume Type Status Disk Status
------------------------------------------------------
c0t0d0 IM OK c0t0d0 OK
c0t1d0 OK
c0t2d0 IM OK c0t2d0 OK
c0t3d0 OK
# zpool status -x
pool: dpool
state: FAULTED
status: One or more devices could not be opened. There are insufficient
replicas for the pool to continue functioning.
action: Attach the missing device and online it using ''zpool
online''.
see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-D3
scrub: none requested
config:
NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
dpool UNAVAIL 0 0 0 insufficient replicas
c0t2d0 UNAVAIL 0 0 0 cannot open
#
what the customer does to achieve this is documented in the attachment
(sorry about the German comments, but I thought translating them would have
been a bit much to ask).
TIA for any comments, etc.
Michael

[zfs-discuss] Re: Q: T2000: raidctl vs. zpool status
Just FYI: cust removed /etc/zfs/zpool.cache and rebooted. using "zpool import", he was then able to import the pool anew. We''re still interested in your opinion on this - so pls. keep those emails coming :-) TIA Michael PS: pls keep Steffen on your replies as well, he''s not on the list.
