[Resolution]

Disk failure may have occurred. Identify the cause by referring to disk driver log message, and recover the disk.

 


 

WARNING: disk: device: disabled disk, class=class

 

[Explanation]

disk is disabled since its data is invalid. device is the physical disk name corresponding to disk.

[Resolution]

Disk configuration may have been wrongly changed or disk data could be damaged. Check for improper connection change of I/O cables and disk swap.

Also check for disk driver log message regarding the disk in question, and attempt recovery.

 


 

WARNING: volume: volume synchronization failed, class=class

 

[Explanation]

Synchronization copying of volume was unsuccessful.

[Resolution]

Attempt recovery by identifying the cause of failure by referring to GDS log message and disk driver message that were output immediately before the error.

 


 

WARNING: volume: volume just resynchronization failed, class=class

 

[Explanation]

Just resynchronization copying of volume was unsuccessful.

[Resolution]

Attempt recovery by identifying the cause of failure by referring to GDS log message and disk driver message that were output immediately before the error.

 


 

WARNING: class: unknown class file found

 

[Explanation]

Class file class which does not exist in class database file was found while booting the system.

 


 

WARNING: invalid configuration database ID information, sdxerrno=sdxerrno, class=class:

      psdevtree

 

[Explanation]

Since the configuration database ID information was invalid, private slice psdevtree was not used as the configuration database for class class.

[Resolution]

Disk configuration may have been wrongly changed or disk data could be damaged. Check for improper connection change of I/O cables and disk swap. Also check for disk driver log message regarding the disk in question, and attempt recovery.

 


 

WARNING: class: too few valid configuration database replicas

 

[Explanation]

There are not sufficient valid configuration databases for class.
This message is displayed when the majority of disks registered with class are unavailable.
Leaving it as is may cause serious problems.

[Resolution]

For details, see "Class Status Abnormality."

 


 

WARNING: cannot open message logging file, errno=errno

         /var/opt/FJSVsdx/msglog/daemon.log

 

[Explanation]

Opening GDS log file was unsuccessful. This message will be output via syslog. Although the message will not be output on GDS logfile, it does not affect other processes.

[Resolution]

Collect investigation material, and contact your local customer support regarding recovery.

 


 

WARNING: cannot write message logging file, errno=errno

         /var/opt/FJSVsdx/msglog/sdxservd.log

 

[Explanation]

Writing to GDS log file was unsuccessful. This message will be output via syslog. Although the message will not be output on GDS logfile, it does not affect other processes.

[Resolution]

Collect investigation material and contact your local customer support.

 


 

WARNING: failed to reply message to node node, details

 

[Explanation]

Replying to remote node node was unsuccessful.

[Resolution]

Collect investigation material and contact your local customer support.

[Explanation]

Changing class resource status to new-status on a remote node node was unsuccessful.

[Resolution]

Collect investigation material and contact your local customer support.

 


 

WARNING: sdxfunc: no enough address space, osfunc=osfunc, errno=errno

 

[Explanation]

The OS osfunc function returned an error. The error number is errno.

[Resolution]

Confirm you have sufficient memory or swap area.

 


 

WARING: respawned daemon daemon successfully

 

[Explanation]

Although daemon terminated abnormally, it completed normally by restarting. This message will be output via syslog.

[Resolution]

To identify the cause of daemon terminating abnormally, collect investigation material and contact your local customer support.

 


 

WARNING: device: failed to restore VTOC on disk, sdxerrno=sdxerrno

 

[Explanation]

Recovering physical disk device format information was unsuccessful. Disk failure may have occurred.

[Resolution]

Use format(1M) command to recover format information.


 

WARNING: cannot set use-nvramrc? parameter to true, NVRAMRC not empty

 

[Explanation]

Since a command is already registered with NVRAMRC, use-nvramrc? parameter could not be set to "true."

[Resolution]

For details of advisory notices, see "System Disk Mirroring."

 


 

WARNING: volume: cannot copy to one or more slices in volume

 

[Explanation]

Copying process could not be performed on some slices within volume.

[Resolution]

Execute synchronization copying as needed.

 


 

WARNING: device: write error, errno=errno

 

[Explanation]

A write error occurred in physical disk device and recovering the VTOC of device failed. A disk failure may have occurred.

[Resolution]

To recover the VTOC of device, use the format(1M) command. If device is write-locked by the disk unit's copy function, no action is required.

 


 

WARNING: device: read error, errno=errno

 

[Explanation]

A read error occurred in physical disk device and recovering the VTOC of device failed. A disk failure may have occurred.

[Resolution]

To recover the VTOC of device, use the format(1M) command.

 


 

WARNING: error may occur on device:

      special

 

[Explanation]

An error may have occurred on the mirrored boot device special.

[Resolution]

Disk failure may have occurred. Identify the cause by referring to the disk driver log message and such, and recover the disk.

 


 

WARNING: system booted from diagnostic boot device

 

[Explanation]

The diag-switch? parameter stored in NVRAM (non-volatile memory) on the main unit is true, and the system was booted from the diagnostic boot device.

[Resolution]

Change the diag-switch? variable to false where necessary and reboot the system.

 


 

WARNING: proxy: too many EC/OPC sessions

 

[Explanation]

The number of EC or OPC sessions within the physical disk (LU) or the disk array body has reached the upper limit of supported concurrent sessions. For this reason, a new EC or OPC session cannot be started. Copying is started using the soft copy function.

[Resolution]

To make copying by EC or OPC available, cancel the relationship between the proxy volume proxy and the master volume, wait until the running session ends and try this command again. Alternatively, according to need, cancel the running session using the sdxproxy Cancel command, the sdxproxy Break command, or [Operation]:[Proxy Operation]:[Break] and try this command again.

 


 

WARNING: proxy: failed to start OPC, source=disk.volume, target=disk.volume, class=class

 

[Explanation]

An error occurred when OPC was started between the proxy volume proxy and the master volume. "source" is the copy source slice name, "target" is the copy destination slice name, and "class" is the name of the class to which the copy source slice and the copy destination slice belong. Copying is started between proxy and the master using the soft copy function.

[Resolution]

The cause of this error may derive from a faulty disk array unit. Identify the cause by referring to the log messages for GDS, disk driver, and Fujitsu Storage Systems ETERNUS that were output right before the occurrence of the error, and restore.

 


 

WARNING: proxy: failed to start EC session, source=disk.volume, target=disk.volume, class=class

 

[Explanation]

An error occurred when an EC session was started between the proxy volume proxy and the master volume. "source" is the copy source slice name, "target" is the copy destination slice name, and "class" is the name of the class to which the copy source slice and the copy destination slice belong. Copying is started between proxy and the master using the soft copy function.

[Resolution]

The cause of this error may derive from a faulty disk array unit. Identify the cause by referring to the log messages for GDS, disk driver, and Fujitsu Storage Systems ETERNUS that were output right before the occurrence of the error, and restore.
