Granted I am running a one year old version of the system code.
Support hasn't been able to say if newer code would have prevented
any of this.
We ran into the same bug with our 7410 cluster. In version<mumble>
(~1 year old), rebuilding a disk caused huge performance impacts,
to the point of unresponsiveness.
The newer code version has different bugs. The most fun one is
that when a failed disk finishes rebuilding onto a spare, and you
replace the failed drive, the system will fail the new drive.
They've given us a bunch of hotfixes for that one, but we are still
seeing issues.
Hi John,
Yeah, version <mumble>, that's my version! Well the vendor is
recommending an upgrade to the latest code (not a surprise, and it was
on my todo list anyway). Sounds like I might have more fun times to
look forward to, post-upgrade. I heard there is a new version coming
out RSN, the first of the 2011-Q? vintage. Wonder if that incorporates
your hotfixes. Thanks for the commiseration, and good luck!
Cheers,
Roy
