Description
- Disks are not accessible by the filer after adding disks from another filer.
- The
disk show -v
command shows the disks are owned by another filer. - The
disk reassign
command does not work because the filer does not own the disks. - The
disk fail
command does not work because the filer does not own the disks.
Remove disk ownership on disks that are not owned by local node.
Procedure
Per the NetApp manual page:
"To make an owned disk unowned, use the -s unowned option. The local
node should own this disk. Use -f option if the disk is not owned by
the local node and may result in data corruption if the current owner of
the disk is up."
Perform the following steps to make an owned disk unowned:
-
Identify the disk.
newfiler*> disk show -v
