Hello,

I found the following while looking at "man voledit":


...

/sbin/voledit [-g diskgroup] [-e pattern] [-vpsdGrf] set attribute=value...
[name...]


...


failing
Sets (on) or clears (off) the disk failing flag. If the failing
flag is set for a disk, the disk space is not used as free space or
used by the hot-sparing facility.


...


So the syntax looks to be as follows:


...

dm dsk3g dsk3g simple 4096 15918532 FAILING <--
dm dsk3h dsk3h simple 4096 15918532 FAILING <--

...


/sbin/voledit set failing=off cluster_usrvol <--uses "dsk3g"
/sbin/voledit set failing=off cluster_varvol <--uses "dsk3h"


Hope this helps,

Subject: LSM recovering after error OK, what about FAILING in volprint ?

Hello all ..

I have the following problem:

After this cluster have had problems in the dual HSG80 SAN , the disks are in place again.
BUT two partitions of the one side, has a FAILING beside the definition.
How do I et rid of the FAILING ?

I assume that things are OK, looking down the list of ACTIVE plexes, but I want to get the errors away, because I fear that this is giving me problems when I want to move the rootvol, usrvol and varvol with cfs commands.

Moreover, where does this come from ?

I also have a datadg disk with the same fenomen.

Here is the volprint output for rootdg:

* volprint rootdg *
