I have had the same problem with an AW51C.

It was the TAC answer (Jon Davis):

File system check (fsck) will not clear the needs maint
flag. This can only be reset by reloading the meta database.
The flag  "needs  maintenance" gets set when there is an
error when accessing a particular partition. I suggest you check the 
messagesfile ( /var/adm/messagesfile.0 ) or if you have many, check them all to 
see what error were encountered If they are frequent, your hard drive is 
probably going bad and will need to be replaced.
FOX_TAC

The procedure to reload the meta database is in HH745 (section B. 51 Series 
Only).

Regards
Alexander

Asunto: Problems with concatenated and mirrored disks on AW51B

Hello

At our site we have an AW51B with 4x 2.1GB disks (2 concatenated main, 2
concatenated mirror). In addition we have one set of 2x 2.1GB disks spare;
these are exchanged for safekeeping as a backup.

Some time ago one of the disks (on ESP1) gave us problems while doing the
mirroring process. (Error messages listed below)


d5:  d15:      6478240    ESP0 / SCSI3   Okay
          d25:      6478240    ESP1 / SCSI3   Nds_Maint

I have tried to replace the disk several times(the disk has been given SCSI
address 2 and 3 on ESP1). I have tried HH835, but I'm still having the same
problem.

The exchange disk is a 18.2GB 10000rpm Disk UniPack purchased from a local
vendor. The disk has been labeled and made to look like 2.1GB as prescribed
by Foxboro.

Foxboro recommends us at this time to exchange the 3 sets of concatenated
disks with one single disk with a larger size.

Has anyone solved a similar problem? Thanks for any response.
