New Storage disks added to san

Hey all,
I have added a set of new storage disks to our san that is connected to our Netware boxes. The existing storage appears fine in remote manager. I have run scan all and scan for new hardware, but i can't get the new storage to appear under either of the qlogic cards.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do to get them to appear?

More of my setup..
I'm running NW 6.5 Sp5 with 2 qlogic ql2300 cards. I have a 1 TB drive presented to the server, I think it's done right? The SAN is a IBM DS4300. It's set to LUN1.
Between the SAN and the NW server is a fibre switch, an IBM Total Storage 16M2. No changes were made to the switch.
There is an existing array set to LUN0 and that is working fine to the NW server.
I have run SCAN ALL on the NW server to scan all LUNs. I then go into NSSMU and do a scan for new devices. The new array is not shown, just the original array on LUN0 and the internal drive.
Any ideas as to what I can do to get the new storage array to be shown in NSSMU? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The main error in this position is thinking ANY sized SSD can be "storage"
Any Macbook SSD should be idealized as a working platform computer system, containing all your applications, documents, and weekly-use necessary files; and all media files such as ‘big-data’ (music/PDF collections/video/pictures), unless directly needed in the near future, should be kept off the computer and on external storage USB or likewise bare hard drives.
You cant do what you want without removing the internal SSD
Officially, it is not possible for an end user to upgrade the storage in any Retina Display MacBook Pro model after purchase

My Windows 7 Professional desktop system hard disk got corrupted and I took the opportunity to install an SSD for a new system disk and reinstall Windows. The system is up and running on the SSD, with my old system disk now used for storage as it is still readable. The only Adobe product I have reinstalled so far is Reader XI but I would like to reinstall Elements 8 and Acrobat 9 without taking up more licences as both are also installed on my laptop. Can you point me to the best way to do this? - Thanks

If you have the two allotted activations already and one was lost on the hard drive that failed then you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.

Want to move datafiles, controlfiles, redolog on new ASM Disks (11gR2 RAC)

Hi Guys,
Setup: Two Node 11gR2 (11.2.0.1) RAC on RHEL 5.4
Existing disks are from Old SAN & New Disks are from New SAN.
Can I move all datafiles (+DATA), controlfiles (+CTRL), redolog (+REDO) on new ASM Disks by adding disks in is same Diskgroup & dropping older disks from existing Diskgroup taking advantage of ASM Re-balancing Feature.
1) add required disks in the DATA Diskgroups,
ALTER DISKGROUP DATA ADD DISK
'/dev/oracleasm/disks/NEWDATA3' NAME NEWDATA_0003,
'/dev/oracleasm/disks/NEWDATA4' NAME NEWDATA_0004,
'/dev/oracleasm/disks/NEWDATA5' NAME NEWDATA_0005
REBALANCE POWER 11;
Check rebalance status from v$ASM_OPERATION.
2) When rebalance completes, drop the old disks.
ALTER DISKGROUP DATA DROP DISK
NEWDATA_0000,
NEWDATA_0001
REBALANCE POWER 11;
Check rebalance status from v$ASM_OPERATION.
3) Do it same for Redo log groups & Controlfile Diskgroups.
I hope, I could do this Activity, even if database is Up. is there possibility of Database block Corruption ??? (or is it necessary to perform above steps when database is down)
Would be appreciated, your quick responses on the same.
It's an urgent requirement. Thanks.
Regards,
Manish

Hi Manish,
Yes you can do that by adding new disk to existing diskgroup and delete old diskgroup. The good thing is this can be done online however you need to make sure the rebalance power is meet your business time, higher rebalance power is faster to rebalance to complete however it also will consume more resources

Moving ASM-based RAC to new storage device

We recently installed Oracle 11gR2 RAC on a REH 5.3 cluster. CRS, Voting Disk, and database files are all sitting on an ASM disk group (on a Clarion storage device). A decision is made to move everything to a new storage device (DMX). We are using EMC powerpath.
Is there an easy way to move this Oracle cluster from one storage device to another.
We can rsync the grid and RDBMS binaries which are installed on a linux filesystem on each node but I would like to know how to go about moving the shared storage which is hosted on the ASM.
We used asmlib 2.0 to create the ASM disk and then relied on the clusterware installer and DBCA to create the disk group, the cluster components, and the oracle database.
Do I need to backup the ASM database as well as our RAC database (using RMAN) into a flat filesystem first and restore them once the new ASM disk is created in the new storage device?
A step by step procedure will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Omer

Yes its possible without backup/restore.. good to take full back in case of any mishappening.
Please read metalink note for step by step process..

Migrate zpools to new storage array

I am in the process of migrating to a new EMC storage array. I used EMC SRDF to copy all tracks from the current disks to the new disks, so that all new disks look identical except for the actual device path since the WWN is different on the new array. I was hoping I could simply unmask/unmap the old SAN, mask and map the new SAN, and ZFS would be able to import the pools from the new SAN (like you can with veritas), but I didn't take into consideration that the device paths/names would be different and ZFS wouldn't like it. Is there any way to get solaris to see the new ZFS pools that now exist on the the new storage array so that I don't have to mirror and then remove the disks from the pool and pretty much wipeout all of the sync work I've already done with the EMC software?
Hopefully this makes sense, but please let me know if I need to explain further.

No issue, works as expected, I just didn't split the synchronization between the old and new devices, so the new disks were still write disabled in EMC land. Once I split the sync, everything imported without a hitch, so it was my stupid mistake.

New hard disk not detected on openboot

hello guys,
would like to request help if there are any settings i need to enable for a netra t1 to detect the new hard disks that were added on a dell disk array. the netra t1 is able to detect scsi hds 1-3 but not the 8-11. have checked netra t1 manual and it says that it supports both narrow and wide scsi. probe scsi only shows the following disks:
/pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2
Target 0
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318404LSUN18G 8590
Target 1
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318406LC 8A03
Target 2
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318406LC 8A03
Target 3
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318406LC 8A03
the new disks are of the same model. any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,
the netra t1 is able to detect scsi hds 1-3 but not the 8-11.
/pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2
Target 0
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318404LSUN18G 8590

Target 2
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318406LC 8A03
Target 3
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318406LC 8A03
This is an incomplete output of probe-scsi. Which of these disks are internal (maybe only ID 0?) ?
Set auto-boot? to FALSE at the ok-prompt. Temporarily insert one of the new disks in the slot of one of the detected disks (e.g. ID3). Is the disk now detected at the OBP ? If it is, there is something wrong with the external chassis.
I assumed that this is a Netra T1 AC200/DC200 with only a single channel SCSI controller.

New hard disk not detected when plugged into SUN FIRE X4150

Hi
We have a server currently set up as RAID-1. There's a need to have additional space for operational needs so an additional 300GB hard disk was acquired and need not be in RAID-1 setup. It was plugged into the server and the server seems to hang i.e. remote sessions terminated, cannot be ping.
Server was powered down, and after removing the hard disk, powered up. Everything is ok again.
We then powered down the server, plugged in the hard disk, and powered it up. Server boot up into the OS ok but the new hard disk did not get detected.
My questions are:-
1. Is it possible to add a 3rd hard disk in a RAID-1 server?
2. If yes, what are we doing wrong or missed?
3. If it not possible, does it mean in a RAID-1 setup, any additional hard disk to be added MUST also be RAID-1 configured?

Hi.
This server can be ordered with LSI RAID controller or with Adaptec RAID controller.
They are required different steps for configure disks.
Adaptec RAID controller require first create volume at BIOS level RAID configuration menu.

New hard disk for HP Pavilion All-in-One MS228sc

I need to get af new hard disk drive for my HP Pavilion All-in-One MS228sc. I have great difficulties in getting in touch with HP denmark since my product is out of waranty.
My questions is if the PC can handle a disk larger than my current on on 500 GB. Further more I am not sure about other potential limits the PC could have ini regards to speed and other parameters on a new disk drive
This question was solved.

As your computer is out of warranty, please purchase a 500GB - 2TB 3.5" SATA2 or 3 hard drive from an online or local retailer. If the new drive is an AF (Advanced Format) drive, you may have issues using the HP Recovery Media you created or purchased.
If this is the case and you can still read the 25-digit Windows product key on the Microsoft COA affixed to your computer, you can install Windows 7 using this key. Please see "How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc" for instructions on how to download Windows 7, create the installation media, and install Windows 7 using the 25-digit product key from the Microsoft COA on your computer. This method will not install any HP customizations or value-added software and you will have to manually install all needed drivers.

Hi All,
There is a new requirement is adding some new Company Codes. Once the company code is segregated and added in ECC. How much effort required to set up this new company code in BI?
Could anyone please guide, what would be the activities performed in BI (Settings, Config, mapping, etc)? to make the new company codes available in BI.
Thanks

Mostly cleaning.. Ensure the data is harmonic & coherent, i.e same case, lettering etc. Perform the update in master, run the ACR via RSATTR to reflect the changes. If you have used some restrictions in BEx reports, ensure they have been removed or changed. It's nice to learn you are pro-active than reactive.. Anyways, just keep posting.

Getting new hard disks to show up?

I have installed Solaris 10 to my primary hard disk. The OS is up and running fine as far as I can tell. I have also added two three more hard disks (250GB PATA IDE drives). The BIOS during bootup sees the drives just fine. (Even the Solaris install saw them...). When I'm in the CDE GUI I can't get the OS to see the extra 3 drives.
I've tried going into the Solaris Management Console 2.1 and then I choose "This Computer" on the "Open Toolbox" dialog. From there I go to the "Storage" --> "Disks" and I get an error message "Attempt to get a list of all Disks failed with unexpected CIM error: CIM_ERR_FAILED"
Help! Am I just looking in the wrong spot? What do I need to do to get the 3 additional disks to show up? (I'm trying to get them to show up so I can setup a ZFS raid...)

jebilbrey:
With all due respect; none of the various *nix are particularly well suited to "point and click" system administration. One of their most redeeming qualitites (to me) is that you learn the innards of the system and moving icons around isn't that ;)
Now, as for the format command; as root you type in "format" from the command prompt. If you see them with that command you select the disk you want to partition (it will have a number assigned). From there you select part (I think that's it) then you assign the size for each slice of the disk with the exception of slice 2 which is the whole drive from block 0 to block n.
Once you've laid out the disk with the partitions you want you use the "label" option to write the partition table to the disk.
If you are going to mount filesystems; you have to use newfs on the partitions you created; then mount them up.
As I said; not exactly "point and click" system administration.

Moving Oracle Home from Disk Partition to SAN Partition

Hi,
We have one task that, we have currently running 10.2.0.1 instance on Disk Partition. We are going to move that Oracle Engine to SAN Partition.
Can I copy all the files from disk partition to san partition? or any other procedure to do so? if any document or link, can you please point me to that

thanks friend....now i understood.. we have Oracle Home and Database Files in single disk partition (/oradata)
(a) we will create new partition wihch is pointed to san -- /new_oradata
(b) Copy the files from /oradata to /new_oradata
(c) umount /oradata
(d) mount the SAN Partition (/new_oradata) to /oradata
Now we are having /oradata partition mountpoint in SAN
thanks buddy.... I think this procedure will work fine.....

Cannot mount storage disk after running "reboot -- -r"

I have a server installed Solaris Sparc u4 and integrated with a storage. When executing "reboot -- -r" or "init 6", the storage disk cannot be mounted after system startup again. The output of console said "
obtaining access to all attached disks
mount: /dev/md/emads/dsk/d50 or /home, no such file or directory
I really added item into /etc/vfstab which is "/dev/md/emads/dsk/d50 /dev/md/emads/rdsk/d50 /home ufs 2 yes global,logging ".
But, if I use "reboot" instead, the storage disk can be mounted normally.
I'm so confused. Could you please tell me the cause and solution? Well, I don't wanna use "mountall" every time after the system is rebooted.

Add new hard disk

Hello everyone!
Our server is running out storage space, so we are planning to install new hard disks. Please let us know how to set up
Thank you
Best Regards

For what we are going to do is that we try to run the client export with t-code SCC8, since the system respond Runtime Errors
     Short text
                No more storage space available for extending an internal table.
     What happened :
                You attempted to extend an internal table, but the required space was not available.
So, we try to add new hard disk for this. By the way, our system is windows 2008, with oracle database.
Thanks
