Diagnosing a creatediskpools(1M) Failure

Diagnosing a creatediskpools(1M) Failure

When modifying the Sun StorEdge T3+ array configuration on a Sun StorEdge 6900 series, the system should automatically create disk pools. If the virtualization engine cannot find two paths to all Sun StorEdge T3+ array LUNs, however, the multipath drives cannot be created. If this happens, the following procedure can help troubleshoot the problem:

1.Inspect the SUNWsecfg log file (/var/adm/log/SEcfglog) to see if any errors are indicated.

In the following example, creatediskpools(1M) for t3b0 indicates a missing Sun StorEdge T3+ array path.

Thu May 30 17:35:19 MDT 2002 creatediskpools: t3b0 ENTER: /opt/SUNWsecfg/ bin/creatediskpools -n t3b0.

Thu May 30 17:35:19 MDT 2002 checkslicd: v1 ENTER /opt/SUNWsecfg/bin/ checkslicd -n v1.

Thu May 30 17:35:21 MDT 2002 checkslicd: v1 EXIT.

There are no eligible drives to create MultiPath drive automatically. Thu May 30 17:35:32 MDT 2002 creatediskpools: ERROR: No mpdrives found on virtualization engine pair v1.

Thu May 30 17:35:32 MDT 2002 creatediskpools: INFO verify all T3+ array LUNS have 2 paths to the virtualization engine pair, then re-run creatediskpools.

Thu May 30 17:35:32 MDT 2002 creatediskpools: Failed to create at least one disk pool.

Thu May 30 17:35:33 MDT 2002 creatediskpools: t3b0 EXIT.
