1700 Unrecovered Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship

Explanation

This error might be reported after the recovery action for a cluster failure or a complete I/O group failure. The error is reported because some Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationships, whose control data is stored by the I/O group, were active at the time of the failure and the current state of the relationship could not be recovered.

Action

To fix this error it is necessary to delete all of the relationships that could not be recovered and then recreate the relationships.

  1. Note the I/O group index against which the error is logged.
  2. List all of the Metro Mirror and Global Mirror relationships that have either a master or an auxiliary VDisk in this I/O group. Use the VDisk view to determine which VDisks in the I/O group you noted have a relationship defined.
  3. Note the details of the Metro Mirror and Global Mirror relationships that are listed so that they can be recreated.
  4. Delete all of the Metro Mirror and Global Mirror relationships that are listed. Note: The error will automatically be marked as "fixed" once the last relationship on the I/O group is deleted. New relationships should not be created until the error is fixed.
  5. Using the details noted in step 3, recreate all of the Metro Mirror and Global Mirror relationships that you just deleted. Note: You are able to delete a Metro Mirror or Global Mirror relationship from either the master or auxiliary cluster; however, you must recreate the relationship on the master cluster. Therefore, it might be necessary to go to another cluster to complete this service action.
