DiskSuite State Unavailable After metareplace

Hello,

After replacing a JBOD disk that died, the metareplace was ran, the device went into enable/sync'ing state and then when the sync completed, the state changed to unavailable. [metareplace -e mirror component]

metadb shows the replica db looking good on the new disk.
format shows the disk online and looking good.

the 4.2.1 sds guide doesn't even have a state called ,,unavailable".

any help on what to do next? would like to avoid the metadetach/metattach scenario.

Thanks.

If u are replacing the failed disk. the command to run is below :
metareplace dXX old_device <new device name>

If the disk is alright
metareplace -e mirror component


Can u post the metastat output of the particular device .

RESOLVED

The metareplace executed fine twice...the SVM configuration needed a reset with the following command...metastat -i <mirror>

Make note of this all you SDS players out there...have fun.
