1. Verify that more than one LUN is mapped to the host

group. The minimum number of LUNs required is 2.

2. If the number of LUNs is less than 2, add LUNs to

meet the required minimum LUN count of 2.

3. Try to format the system.

Associating LUN Names To Virtual Disks

Description

Determining which LUNs in the NAS Manager are virtual
disks in the Modular Disk Storage Manager.

Workaround

Open the NAS Manager web interface and go to Cluster

Management → Maintenance → Add Luns. This page

displays all LUNs that the NAS cluster solution has access

to (assigned to the NAS cluster solution host group). Each

LUN can be identified using its world-wide name. In the

NAS Manager web interface, the LUN's world-wide name

is preceded by a prefix.
Open MDSM and go to the Logical tab and click Virtual

Disk. The virtual disk world-wide identifier is displayed in

the Properties pane. This workaround enables you

determine which virtual disks are assigned to the NAS file

system.

Cause

Workaround

Enable IPV6 support on your management workstation.

Attach Operation Fails

Description

The operation to attach the controller to NAS cluster fails.

Workaround

Connect a keyboard and monitor to the controller

that failed the attach operation, and view the error

message to determine why the attach operation

failed.

Verify the following:

– While the controller was detached, the IP

assigned to it on the client network was

not allocated to another host. While the

controller is detached, it loses its identity,

including IP addresses. When it is

attached, its identity is applied back to the

controller, including the IP addresses.

– Verify the default gateway is in the

Primary subnet by using the NAS

Manager. In Cluster Management →
