After a node or an I/O group fails, you can move offline
virtual disks (VDisks) to their original I/O group.
This task assumes that you have already launched the SAN Volume Controller Console.
Attention: Under no circumstances should VDisks
be moved to an offline I/O group. Ensure that the I/O group is online
before moving back the VDisks to avoid any further data loss.
Perform
the following steps to move offline VDisks to their original I/O group:
- Click in the portfolio.
The Viewing Virtual Disks panel is displayed.
- Select the offline VDisk and select Modify a
VDisk from the task list and click Go.
The Modifying Virtual Disk panel is displayed.
- From the I/O Group list, select the name of the
VDisk's original I/O group. You might be asked to confirm and force
the move; select to force the move. Click OK.
The Viewing Virtual Disks panel is displayed.
- Verify that the VDisk is online.
- Repeat these steps for each offline VDisk.
