Hello Renar,

Thanks for that command, very useful and I can now see the problematic NSDs are 
all served remotely.

I have double checked the multipath and devices and I can see these NSDs are 
available locally.

How do I get GPFS to recognise this and server them out via 'localhost'?

mmnsddiscover -d <NSD> seemed to have brought two of the four problematic NSDs 
back to being served locally, but the other two are not behaving. I have double 
checked the availability of these devices and their multipaths but everything 
on that side seems fine.

Any more ideas?

Regards,
Son

Hallo Son,

you can check the access to the nsd with mmlsdisk <fsname> -m. This give you a 
colum like ?IO performed on node?. On NSD-Server you should see localhost, on 
nsd-client you see the hostig nsd-server per device.

Betreff: [gpfsug-discuss] rescan-scsi-bus.sh and "Local access to NSD failed 
with EIO, switching to access the disk remotely."

Hello,

I wonder if anyone has seen this? I am (not) having fun with the 
rescan-scsi-bus.sh command especially with the -r switch. Even though there are 
no devices removed the script seems to interrupt currently working NSDs and 
these messages appear in the mmfs.logs:

2019-06-25_06:30:48.706+0100: [I] Connected to <IP> <node> <c0n0>
2019-06-25_06:30:48.764+0100: [E] Local access to <NSD> failed with EIO, 
switching to access the disk remotely.
2019-06-25_06:30:51.187+0100: [E] Local access to <NSD> failed with EIO, 
switching to access the disk remotely.
2019-06-25_06:30:51.188+0100: [E] Local access to <NSD> failed with EIO, 
switching to access the disk remotely.

2019-06-25_06:30:59.863+0100: [I] Connected to <IP> <node> <c0n4>
2019-06-25_06:33:30.134+0100: [E] Local access to <NSD> failed with EIO, 
switching to access the disk remotely.
2019-06-25_06:33:30.151+0100: [E] Local access to <NSD> failed with EIO, 
switching to access the disk remotely.

These messages appear roughly at the same time each day and I?ve checked the 
NSDs via mmlsnsd and mmlsdisk commands and they are all ?ready? and ?up?. The 
multipaths to these NSDs are all fine too.

Is there a way of finding out what ?access? (local or remote) a particular node 
has to an NSD? And is there a command to force it to switch to local access ? 
?mmnsdrediscover? returns nothing and run really fast (contrary to the 
statement ?This may take a while? when it runs)?

Any ideas appreciated!

Regards,
Son
