Introduction

This document walks through mapping a drive which is blacklisted in HX to the drive in UCS. This helps in troubleshooting issues, identifying blacklisted drive and PID of the drive in a Hyperflex environment.  We will need both the HX and the UCS logs for this process. Alternatively, you may also run the commands provided on a live system after SSH'ing into the device.

Step 1. In the output of /var/log/springpath/diskslotmap-v2.txt above, verify a disk is "Inactive". Note the disk slot, id of the disk, Vendor Model, and Serial Number of the disk.

Step 2. In the output of /cmds_output/stcli_node_list.txt confirm the drive is blacklisted and it matches the id we got in Step 1 above.

Validate info from HX system

You will need to run these commands on the live system, and then follow the corresponding HX steps above

cat /var/log/springpath/diskslotmap-v2.txt

stcli node list

Mapping Drive to Host

Step 1. The first step will be to get the disk identifier that's failed from HX Connect.

Step 2. Use command cat stevents.log and grep for the disk identifier to get the node ID.

Step 3. Run "stcli cluster info | less" to match the node identifier to the IP address of the host.

cat /var/log/springpath/stevents.logs | grep 55cd2e414d9c5754

In sam_techsupportinfo, search for the Serial Number (from Step 1 above). From there look for the drive whch is failed and get the Cisco PID from it. If you want to see which server it is installed in from the UCS side, you will need to scroll up in the logs until you reach the Server number and information. You can also get the rest of the server configuration from this output.

Validate information from UCS system

You will need to check either via the UCSM GUI, or SSH into the UCSM IP address and run the below commands, then follow the corresponding UCS steps above.

To check via GUI

Navigate to UCSM > Server X > Inventory > Storage > Disks > Expand All > Serial Column

To check via CLI

To display the inventory of all servers

HX-UCSM-B# show server inventory storage detail

Or, if you know which server you want to expand the inventory on

HX-UCSM-B# scope server 1

HX-UCSM-B /server # show inventory storage detail
