Operating Systems AIX IBM SAN storage -- cache battery Post 302519767 by filosophizer on Thursday 5th of May 2011 03:23:37 AM

The problem was solved by disabling the read and write cache for the disks under the controller which had the failed battery.

I think it could have been solved also by moving the disks from Controller B to controller A , but this I am not sure if you don't have MPIO ( Multi path I/O ) how will it behave ?

I will attach few screen shots later.

thanks
