Hi,

I tried to use a policy to find out what files are located on the broken disks. But this is not finding any files or directories (I cleaned some of the output):

[I] GPFS Current Data Pool Utilization in KB and %
Pool_Name                   KB_Occupied        KB_Total  Percent_Occupied
V500003                       173121536     69877104640      0.247751444%

[I] 29609813 of 198522880 inodes used: 14.915063%.

[I] Loaded policy rules from test.rule.
rule 'ListRule'
   list 'ListName'
      from pool 'V500003'

[I] Directories scan: 28649029 files, 960844 directories, 0 other objects, 0 'skipped' files and/or errors.

[I] Inodes scan: 28649029 files, 960844 directories, 0 other objects, 0 'skipped' files and/or errors.

[I] Summary of Rule Applicability and File Choices:

[I] Filesystem objects with no applicable rules: 29609873.

[I] A total of 0 files have been migrated, deleted or processed by an EXTERNAL EXEC/script;
        0 'skipped' files and/or errors.


So the policy is not finding any files but there is still some data on the V50003 pool?

Hi, Stef,

if just that V5000 has provided the storage for one of your pools
entirely, and if your metadata are still incorrupted, a inode scan with a
suited policy should yield the list of files on that pool.
If I am not mistaken, the list policy could look like

RULE 'list_v5000'  LIST 'v5000_filelist'  FROM POOL <your_v5000_pool>

paut it into a (policy) file,  run that by mmapplypolicy against the file
system in question, it should produce a file listing in
/tmp/v5000_filelist. If it doesn#T work exactly like that (I might have
made one or mor mistakes), check out the information lifycacle section in
the scal admin guide.

If the prereqs for the above are not met, you need to run more expensive
investigations (using tsdbfs for all block addresses on v5000-provided
NSDs).

Sent by:        [email protected]



Hi,

We have a GPFS file system which uses, among other storage, a V5000 as
backend.
There was an error in the fire detection alarm in the datacenter and a
fire alarm was triggered.
The result was that the V5000 had a lot of broken disks. Most of the
disks recovered fine after a reseat, but some data is corrupted on the
V5000.

This means that for 22MB of data, the V5000 returns a read error to the
GPFS.

We migrated most of the data to an disks but there is still 165 GB left
on the V5000 pool.

When we try to remove the disks with mmdeldisk, it fails after a while
and places some of the disks as down.
It generated a file with inodes, this an example of a 2 lines:
   9168519      0:0        0           1                 1
    exposed illreplicated illplaced REGULAR_FILE Error: 218 Input/output
error
   9251611      0:0        0           1                 1
    exposed illreplicated REGULAR_FILE Error: 218 Input/output error


How can I get a list of files that uses data of the V5000 pool?
The data is written by CommVault. When I have a list of files, I can
determine the impact on the application.
