HotPlug Disk Drive Removal |
 |
The
internal disk drives (up to four) are located at the front right
side of the server (as you are facing it). When proper software
and hardware procedures are followed, internal disk drives can be
removed and replaced while the server is running.
The procedures in this section are in two parts, a HotSwap
Software Procedure and a HotPlug Hardware Procedure, for removing
the disk from the server.
Before starting these procedures, you must have an up-to-date
configuration backup file. Configuration backup is performed by
default each time an LVM command changes the LVM configuration.
The default backup files path is:
/etc/lvmconf/base_vg_name.conf. |
The replacement disk drive must be the same product ID as
the disk drive that is being replaced.
 |
 |  |
 |
 | NOTE: HP often uses different manufacturers for disks that
have the same product number. The HotSwap and HotPlug procedures
will not update the disk drive's internal information to
that of the replaced disk drive. |
 |
 |  |
 |
The replacement disk drive will have the same capacity and
blocksize as the defective disk because they have the same product
number. The only field that can be incorrect is the string specifying
the vendor's name. This will not affect the behavior of
the LVM. If you desire to update the manufacturer's name,
the disks volume group must be deactivated and reactivated.
HotSwap
Software Procedure
Perform these software procedural steps to replace a HotPlug
disk drive device:
Determine whether
LVM found the physical volume to be defective when the volume group
was activated.
If the volume was defective when the volume group was
activated, vgchange will generate
the following message to the console:
WARNING VGCHANGE: WARNING: COULDN'T ATTACH TO THE VOLUME GROUP PHYSICAL VOLUME "/DEV/DSK/cXtXdX" VGCHANGE: WARNING: COULDN'T ATTACH TO THE VOLUME GROUP PHYSICAL VOLUME "/DEV/DSK/cXtXdX" THE PATH OF THE PHYSICAL VOLUME REFERS TO A DEVICE THAT DOES NOT EXIST, OR IS NOT CONFIGURED INTO THE KERNAL. |
If you are unsure of the status of vgchange,
check it with the vgdisplay command:
If the disk was defective when the vgchange command
was entered, the following message will be printed one or more times:
WARNING: VGDISPLAY: WARNING: COULDN'T QUERY PHYSICAL VOLUME "/DEV/DSK/cXtXdX" THE SPECIFIED PATH DOES NOT CORRESPOND TO PHYSICAL VOLUME ATTACHED TO THE VOLUME GROUP. VGDISPLAY: WARNING: COULDN'T QUERY ALL OF THE PHYSICAL VOLUMES. |
If you see these messages, the disk was defective at the time
the volume group was activated. Remove the bad disk as described
in step 9 of this procedure, then follow the instructions for replacing
the disk and perform the HotSwap Procedure
for Unattached Physical Volumes described there.
Otherwise, the disk drive became defective after vgchange was
run. Proceed to Step 2.
Display the names of all the
logical volumes on this volume group with the vgdisplay command.
For example:
Determine which logical volumes
have mirrors with the lvdisplay command. For
example:
#lvdisplay /dev/vg00/lvol# | grep -ie "LV Name" -e "Mirror" |
Determine the pvkey command status for the mirrored
logical volume, again using the lvdisplay command
with the -k option. Compare the output to the
lvdisplay command with the -v option
to determine the device file to pvkey mapping.
For example,
 |
# lvdisplay -v -k /dev/vg00/lvol1 --- Logical volumes --- LV Name /dev/vg00/lvol1 VG Name /dev/vg00 LV Permission read/write LV Status available/syncd Mirror copies 1 Consistency Recovery MWC Schedule parallel LV Size (Mbytes) 256 Current LE 64 Allocated PE 128 Stripes 0 Stripe Size (Kbytes) 0 Bad block off Allocation strict/contiguous IO Timeout (Seconds) default --- Distribution of logical volume --- PV Name LE on PV PE on PV /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 64 64 /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 64 64 --- Logical extents --- LE PV1 PE1 Status 1 PV2 PE2 Status 2 00000 0 00000 current 1 00000 current 00001 0 00001 current 1 00001 current 00002 0 00002 current 1 00002 current 00003 0 00003 current 1 00003 current 00004 0 00004 current 1 00004 current 00005 0 00005 current 1 00005 current 00006 0 00006 current 1 00006 current 00007 0 00007 current 1 00007 current 00008 0 00008 current 1 00008 current (etc.) # lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol1 --- Logical volumes --- LV Name /dev/vg00/lvol1 VG Name /dev/vg00 LV Permission read/write LV Status available/syncd Mirror copies 1 Consistency Recovery MWC Schedule parallel LV Size (Mbytes) 256 Current LE 64 Allocated PE 128 Stripes 0 Stripe Size (Kbytes) 0 Bad block off Allocation strict/contiguous IO Timeout (Seconds) default --- Distribution of logical volume --- PV Name LE on PV PE on PV /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 64 64 /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 64 64 --- Logical extents --- LE PV1 PE1 Status 1 PV2 PE2 Status 2 00000 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00000 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00000 current 00001 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00001 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00001 current 00002 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00002 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00002 current 00003 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00003 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00003 current 00004 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00004 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00004 current 00005 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00005 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00005 current 00006 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00006 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00006 current 00007 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00007 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00007 current 00008 /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 00008 current /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 00008 current
|
 |
The pvkey stuatus (0
or 1 in this example) shown in the first command, maps to the device
file names (/dev/dsk/c1t6d0 or /dev/dsk/c2t6d0)
in the second command under columns PV1 and PV2,
respectively.
Reduce any logical volumes that
have mirror copies on the faulty disk drive so that they no longer mirror
onto that disk drive (note the -A n option):
# lvreduce -m 0 -A n -k <LV name> /dev/dsk/cXtXcX <pvkey#>& |
(for 1 way mirroring)
# lvreduce -m 1 -A n -k <LV name> /dev/dsk/cXtXcX <pvkey#>& |
(for 2way mirroring)
# lvreduce -m 0 -A n -k /dev/vg00/lvol4 /dev/dsk/c2t4d0 1& |
The following message will appear:
Logical volume /dev/vg00/lvol4 has been successfully reduced. lvlnboot: Logical Volume has no extents. |
 |
 |  |
 |
 | NOTE: It is important to include the ampersand (&)
at the end of the command line. Otherwise, the lvreduce process
will hang, and you will need terminal control to negate the command.
Once the 'successfully reduced' message has been
generated, manually end the process using the kill -9 command. |
 |
 |  |
 |
Use the ps command
to find the PID for the lvreduce process.
Manually end the process with
the Kill -9 command (It may take several minutes
for the process to end.).
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all
logical volumes.
With all logical volumes reduced,
now reduce the volume group using the vgreduce command.
For example:
# vgreduce /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c2t6d0 |
 |
 |  |
 |
 | CAUTION: The vgreduce procedure may take
a long time to complete. Do NOT terminate this process. |
 |
 |  |
 |
Update the disk BDRA using the
lvlnboot command.
Proceed to the HotPlug
Hardware Procedure to remove the bad disk drive from
the server.
HotPlug
Disk Drive Replacement |
 |
The
internal disk drives (up to four) are located at the front right
side of the server (as you are facing it). When proper software
and hardware procedures are followed, internal disk drives can be
removed and replaced while the server is running.
Hardware
HotPlug Procedure
To
replace a disk drive in the server, grasp the tab at the bottom
of the cam latch on the selected disk drive, push the button inside
the cam latch, and pull the cam latch out and up. The disk drive
will unlock. Pull gently until it slides completely free.
The following graphic shows disk features.
The next graphic depicts disk removal/replacement.
Hot Swap
Software Procedure for Attached Physical Volumes
The
following procedure is an example of how to recover from replacing
a disk that was recognized as an attached physical volume. Be sure
that all the software procedures in the Disk
Drive Removal section have been completed prior to starting
these steps. This example assumes that the disk was mirrored.
 |
 |  |
 |
 | NOTE: HP often uses different manufacturers for disks, but
assigns the same product number. The hot swap manual procedure will
not update disk driver internal information to that of the replaced disk
drive. |
 |
 |  |
 |
Perform an ioscan on
the replaced disk drive to ensure that it is accessible (claimed),
to double check that it is a proper replacement, and that the device
files are present. Refer to the above note.
For example: # ioscan -fnC disk
Use the following procedure to
mirror the root disk:
Create
the new physical volume using the pvcreate command.
For
example: # pvcreate -B /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Extend the volume group to
include the new physical volume using the vgextend command:
For
example: # vgextend /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/cXtXdX
The mkboot command
must be run to make the device bootable.
For example:
# mkboot /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Use the mkboot command
again to add the HP-UX auto-file-string.
For example:
# mkboot -a "hpux" /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Run lvlnboot with
the following command: # lvlnboot -R
Run lvextend to
put a mirror into the replaced disk drive. It may take several minutes
to copy the original copy of the data to the mirrored extents. The
logical volume(s) will still be accessible to user applications
during this operation.
For example:
# lvextend -m 1 <LV name> /dev/dsk/cXtXdX
OR
# lvextend -m 2 <LV name> /dev/dsk/cXtXdX (for 3 way mirroring)
For example:
# lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol4 /dev/dsk/cXtXdX
OR
# lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol5 /dev/dsk/cXtXdX
Repeat this for each logical volume
to be mirrored.
Verify that the mirror is bootable
and AUTO file is correct.
For example:
# lifls -l /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
OR
# lifcp /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX:AUTO -
Verify that the mirroring
is set up properly.
For example:
# vgdisplay -v /dev/vg00
# lvdisplay /dev/vg00/lol1 - lvol8
# lvlnboot -v /dev/vg00
Both disks should list as "Boot Disk" and
both should appear in the lvol lists.
At this point the system will be fully functional.
Hot Swap
Procedure for Unattached Physical Volumes
The
following steps are an example of how to replace a HotPlug disk
drive for unattached physical volumes. This example assumes the
disks are mirrored.
 |
 |  |
 |
 | NOTE: HP often uses different manufacturers for disks, but
assigns the same product number. The hot swap manual procedure will
not update disk driver internal information to that of the replaced disk
drive. |
 |
 |  |
 |
Perform an ioscan on
the replaced disk drive to ensure that it is accessible (claimed),
to double check that it is a proper replacement, and that the device
files are present. Refer to the above note.
For example: # ioscan -fnC disk
Restore the LVM configuration/headers
onto the replaced disk drive from your backup of the LVM configuration
with the following entry:
# vgcfgrestore -n <volume group name> /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
For example: # vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg00 /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Attach the new disk drive to
the active volume group with the following vgchange command:
# vgchange -A y <volume group name>
For example: # vgchange -A y /dev/vg00
Use the mkboot command
to make the device bootable.
For example: # mkboot /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Use the mkboot command
again to add the HP-UX auto-file-string.For example: # mkboot -a "hpux" /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
Run lvlnboot with
the following command: # lvlnboot -R
Resynchronize the mirrors of
the replaced disk drive with the following command. It may take several
minutes to copy all the data from the original copy of the data
to the mirrored extents. The logical volume(s) are still accessible
to users' applications during this command.
# vgsync <VG name>
For example: # vgsync /dev/vg00
At this point the system will be fully functional.
