My Sun StorageTek 2540 have redundant batteries, but a battery was failed.
After the battery failure, the server read/write performance was down (I assume)!
I read some doc from internet and I found a reason to performance down when storage array battery failed. A guy tell me you should change "Write Cache without Batteries" option to ENABLE on the storage volume using SSCS CLI utility.
Command is below:
/opt/SUNWstkcam/bin/sscs modify -a MyStorage -p disk_pool -b enable
I afraid that lost any data on the storage box after execute above command.
Please tell me what happening when I execute " /opt/SUNWstkcam/bin/sscs modify -a MyStorage -p disk_pool -b enable" command on the storage box?
BR,

I have a Sun Sparc T2000 (Solaris 10 05-08) and have installed a PCI-X 4GB Single Port HBA card in it.

For the moment it would be a single path connection, but I've ordered a 2nd HBA, so eventually it would be... (4 Replies)
We're moving our production 3510FC to development, so we need to replace the production 3510FC. The 6140 is nice, but pricey.
Here's the question: Would two 2540's (RAID 10) be 'faster' than one 3510? (RAID 10) and faster than one 6140 (RAID 10)?

Hi Guys and Gals,
Wionder if you could help me, got a problem with a controller on a storagetek 2540, dead when fully powered up but if you reboot, it is ok for a couple of seconds (and you can ping it). Then once the array is fully up, it goes faulty and is un-pingable.

Bought a Sun StorageTek 2540 SAN array a few years ago from a company that was going out of business. When we first set it up, we were able to get all the software (Common Array Manager) and firmware directly from Sun.
We just upgraded the drives, but the array is too large for the firmware. Now... (6 Replies)

csx_Parse_CISTPL_BATTERY - parse the Battery Replacement Date tuple
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/pccard.h>
int32_t csx_Parse_CISTPL_BATTERY(client_handle_t ch, tuple_t *tu,
cistpl_battery_t *cb);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
ch Client handle returned from csx_RegisterClient(9F).
tu Pointer to a tuple_t structure (see tuple(9S)) returned by a call to csx_GetFirstTuple(9F) or csx_GetNextTuple(9F).
cb Pointer to a cistpl_battery_t structure which contains the parsed CISTPL_BATTERY tuple information upon return from this function.
DESCRIPTION
This function parses the Battery Replacement Date tuple, CISTPL_BATTERY, into a form usable by PC Card drivers.
The CISTPL_BATTERY tuple is an optional tuple which shall be present only in PC Cards with battery-backed storage. It indicates the date on
which the battery was replaced, and the date on which the battery is expected to need replacement. Only one CISTPL_BATTERY tuple is allowed
per PC Card.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
The structure members of cistpl_battery_t are:
uint32_t rday; /* date battery last replaced */
uint32_t xday; /* date battery due for replacement */
The fields are defined as follows:
rday This field indicates the date on which the battery was last replaced.
xday This field indicates the date on which the battery should be replaced.
RETURN VALUES
CS_SUCCESS Successful operation.
CS_BAD_HANDLE Client handle is invalid.
CS_UNKNOWN_TUPLE Parser does not know how to parse tuple.
CS_NO_CARD No PC Card in socket.
CS_NO_CIS No Card Information Structure (CIS) on PC Card.
CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION No PCMCIA hardware installed.
CONTEXT
This function may be called from user or kernel context.
