Recovering VDisks by I/O group

Virtual disks (VDisks) or VDisk copies are corrupted if they have lost cached data or space-efficient metadata, usually as a result of hardware failure. A Fast Write State of Corrupt indicates this data loss.

You can recover all corrupted VDisks and VDisk copies in an I/O group. This task assumes that you have already launched the SAN Volume Controller Console.

Perform the following steps to recover VDisks and VDisk copies by I/O group:

  1. Click Work with Nodes > I/O Groups in the portfolio. The Viewing I/O Groups panel is displayed.
  2. Select the I/O Group and select Recover VDisks by I/O Group from the task list and click Go. The Recovering VDisks by I/O Group panel is displayed. Click OK.
  3. Verify that the VDisks and VDisk copies have completed recovery by monitoring the VDisk Recovery Results panel.
