Oh yea, controllers changed. Ummm, the attached output seems to be fine bro.. But, not practically.

It shows up 482 out of which 2 are root/rootmir.. So, remaining 480. Actual Disks should be 120 as each disk has 4 paths. Per your earlier post, 4 storages with 30 each. So, 30*4=120. Path's appear to be fine ENABLED. However, if we see it clearly, there are few disks only with 2 paths..

Seems there is a conflict inside..

Let's do like this.. Proceed checking the controllers..

Code:
#vxdmpadm listctlr all
Make sure that all the controllers are showing up and fine. Get the controller name and status...

Code:
#vxdmpadm getsubpaths ctlr=<Controllername>
Check if the controllers are enabled and active. (It also depends on the DMP layout/algorithm you are using)

Find the controllers which are disabled, perhaps, this could give us some information.. I would also give priority to the controllers which were changed recently.

Let us know how it works.

From what you have described, you seem to be misunderstanding the command vxdisk.

the output of "vxdisk list" will only show you the physical disks that it can see.

if you have 10 disks with thirty volumes, then vxdisk list will show you ten disks. If you have ten dual pathed disks with no multipathing software configured, then you will see twenty disks.

Hi Grippo,

I think he is referring to disk as volume. As of I understand from him, he says that he should be having 30 disks on vxdisk output and he is having 37 disks showing up instead.

Getting deep into it, there are 30 volumes on those 30 disks!

Am I right bond_ankur? Please let us know.. Since, as I said earlier,

Code:
Yes, why cant you have 30 volumes on 37 disks? Are you sure that its not the case?
You can always have 30 volumes on 37 disks or 37 volumes on 30 disks!

And I also believe,
Code:
There are no alternate link to the disk listed on the vxdisk list command, please correct me if am wrong.

you could try posting a screen dump form format - showing exactly how many disks your OS is seeing.

If you could try to be a little more clear, we may be able to help out but so far your questions are a little vague.
