Solaris 10 - HBA port offline
Hi,
Im running solaris 10 in a solaris mahcine and I dont know why a HBA port is in offline state... any suggestion on how to make it online and what can be causing the offline state?

Tks,

From the information provided, you have two dual port HBAs, one port on each HBA is connected, the anther port is not in use?
If this was the case, everything looks normal to me.

So I have to offline the c9 for example and online the c6?
What would be the comand to do it?

Tks for the reply and sorry for the newbie question...
But I need to have c5 and c6 Online.. I dont care for c9 and c10... Is this something doable?
Or it involves cable changing?
PS: how do you know that c5 and 6 are on one HBA and c9 and 10 are on another HBA?
Maybe what I need is to have something like this in the luxadm then,right?
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl CONNECTED
Instead on what I have now:
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@2/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED

From the Serial Number of HBAs above, that c5 and c6 on the same HBA. Now you have better configuration. Why you want both ports on the same card online instead one port on each HBA online?

Im having a problem that some LUNs are not visible in this node....
So comparing to another node in the same cluser where these LUNs are visible I noticed that on this node the c5 and c6 are configured, so I figured if I copy the conf. from the other "good" node I would be ok...
So in the good node where the LUns are there I have this:

To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Note that as ganjos pointed out, this might not solve the issue you have. You have to make sure that the switch is zoned correctly for the missing LUNS/PATHS to be serviced by the port to which you are connecting.
Did the move of the ports fixed the issue?
Did someone move the port from C6 to c9 thinking it will move the path/lun and work without any changes?

I assumed the setting was right, only cable pluged into wrong port.
ASKER
Havent moved it yet.. Only tomorrow I can change the cable manually.
I think the person who set the cables put it by mistake.

The thing that I think that the machine (M4000) has only two HBA ports.... if so, what should I do?
ASKER
Sry I mean T3 server.
You have showed four ports here:
# luxadm -e port
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@2/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED

/devices/pci@400/pci@2/pci

Do you have a fibre switch to which the T3 is connected and to which the solaris boxes are connected?

There must be a reason for moving that will resolve the underlying issue.
As ganjos pointed out and I agree that using Two HBAs provides you with a tolerance for HBA failure.

I have four Gigabit Ethernet ports NET-0, 1, 2, 3... but I dont think these ports refers to it...
The thing is how do I know which port will be c6 or c9..... Anyway I will check tomorrow.
Tks for the help so far.

Tks for the reply.
Yes I have a fiber switch connected to the T3 and where the disk arrays are connected as well.
I will confirm but as far as I know there are two ports available for fiber in the T3 and today I have fiber cables connected to both of them.
# luxadm -e port
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@2/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0/fp@0,0:d evctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@400/pci@2/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl NOT CONNECTED
Sorry if its a beginner question.. Im trying to learn/understand.. but if I have connected to both of ports in the T3.. shoudlnt all ports shows be connected?
Is the port: /devices/pci@400/pci@1/pci @0/pci@8/S UNW,emlxs@ 0,1/fp@0,0 :devctl
only somehow the port pci@1 "used twice" or its a completely different port?
If its only one port "used twice", if I already have the cable there shouldnt I have both "interfaces" of it CONNECT?
Tks for the help so far.

Tks for the explanation.... I had never touched the "disks" part of the setup.. thats what Im trying to understand.. tks for the help.
I was told that there is no conf. in the brocade done... so its basically just plug and play.. then You have access to the disk array....
One stupid question is: this HBA ports... (the 4 of then, 2 for each board) they are at the server not the disk array, right?
Im asking this because I will confirm today but I pretty sure that the server has only 2 HBA ports, not 4....
And since the other server connects to the brocade and to the diskarray, I dont think between the brocade and the disk array there is any misplaced cable....
One thing I read search around was that I havent put the new host to the array storage pools masking list... do you think this can be the problem here and the cables are actually ok?
If the cables are incorrect placed, after I place then correctly do I have to do any command or its just wait?
Tks,
Joao

Yes for the last question.
I have moved the fibers and now it looks ok:
Faulty node now:

The thing is taht I sill cant see the c6 LUNs in the format command... is there any command to be issues so I can see them?
I havent added the host to the list of the array yet.. can this be the cause?
The Luns are visible in the other nodes... below is the format for the faulty and the good node respectively:

The thing is taht I sill cant see the c6 LUNs in the format command... is there any command to be issues so I can see them?
I havent added the host to the list of the array yet.. can this be the cause?
The Luns are visible in the other nodes... below is the format for the faulty and the good node respectively:

I did - see below.
I think its the host list in the array that is prevent the node to see the LUNs.

Anything to be done about this?
I will be checking each of the arrays storage pools masking list and add the faulty node to it.... hopefully after this the LUNs appear with the format command.

If no cable connected at c9, you can manually unconfigure by:
# cfgadm -c unconfigure c9
# cfgadm -c unconfigure c9
ASKER
Any harm on leaving it like this?
What exactly does this configured means? Because its not connected... is it a bug or something like this?

No harm if no cable connected, but better to clean up in some stage, not a bug.

Hi again,
I made conf changes in the array and restarted the faulty node .. now I see this in the var/adm/messages..

Anyway to solve this?
I think this the cause for the LUNs not be in the format command....
I also found that the onnly disk the faulty node can see from the array is the one with SUN-UniversalXport-0670.. see below:
14. c6t20370080E53ED738d31 <SUN-UniversalXport-0784 cyl 8 alt 2 hd 64 sec 64>
/pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/pci@8 /SUNW,emlx s@0,1/fp@0 ,0/ssd@w20 370080e53e d738,1f
And the good node with all the LUNs has disks with SUN-LCSM100_F-0670:
35. c6t202400A0B84930EDd16 <SUN-LCSM100_F-0670 cyl 51198 alt 2 hd 64 sec 64>

And also this one disk that the faulty node can see as well.... not sure what this means...

Wrong magic number means the LUN is un configured /formated un partitioned.
This is normal for a new hard drive/LUN added to a system.
Is the UniverXport LUN supposed to be one from which this system will boot?
Compare your definition/settings/config uration of this LUN versus your other LUN.
Since you currently use comparisons to determine correct/incorrect/unexpect ed functionality, using the same method evaluating/comparing SAN level LUN definition as well as switch level port settings/configuration.

I did now wa reboot -- -r to rebuild the device table and it worked... I can see the LUNs now :)
I read that The magic number really isn't a big problem it just means that there are pointers for disks that aren't being used.. so I will not worry about it.

Tks.
The magic number is not a problem when you are adding disk resources (hard drives, LUNS) (expected). It is a problem when an existing drive has this error which usually means the drive is dead/malfunctioning (unexpected).
You have two DUAL Port HBAs Emulex
or do you have a single multi-channel quad port HBA?
both ports on each card or all ports on the quad port card are connected to a switch or directly to a SAN?
Check the switch/SAN to make sure they are properly zoned. Note that the disconnected/offline indicators relfect an unknown for the type.
Is the port on the switch/SAN reflect that it is connected?
Do you use something similar to a multipathing PowerPATh from EMC? that is configured in a failover mode versus load-balance mode?
