Because FileServ and VolServ components work interactively, changes in the drive components or storage subsystem are reflected in VolServ.

If a component is taken to either the offline or maintenance state, FileServ does not attempt any processing with that component.

When a component is taken to a maintenance state, the maintenance port is enabled and the Ethernet communications link is disabled; whereas, the offline state is only a logical state within FileServ.

After maintenance has been completed, change the component state back to the online state for the component to be reused by FileServ.

Using the fschstate command without any options generates a report that shows all currently configured library components, for example, drives, drive identifiers, and VolServ systems. The report can be limited to a single component by specifying a component alias.

Step 1. Run the fschstate command and specify the component alias of any storage subsystem, component or drive in the library system.
