110 Troubleshooting NAS Blade systems that include external arrays
• When resource group 2’s status is Offline, start resource group 2.
14.
Change the error disk in the external array to restore the external array’s status.
15.
Execute the Check Paths & Restore Vol. command using External Storage XP. For instructions, see
Checking the connection status and resuming external LU operations (Check Paths & Restore Vol.)
16.
Perform the following operations on node 1 and node 2:
a. Set up the differential-data storage device using NAS Sync Image.
b. Create the file system, and create the NFS share and CIFS share using NAS Blade Manager.
17.
Return the backed-up data to the external array’s restored disk, if you had the backed up data in a disk
other than the error disk.
18.
Recreate the Business Copy XP and Continuous Access XP pairs.
Errors in a path to the external array
shows an example of when an error occurs in a path between the local array and an external
array. In
, an error occurs in the path between the local array and external array 1; however,
the path between the local array and external array 2 is normal.
The situation in
is as follows:
•
Clients cannot access volumes in external array 1, but can access volumes in external array 2.
•
The local array recognizes that the status of all file systems and volumes in external array 1 are
blocked.

Error in a path to the external array
1.
Restore (for example, check the cable’s connection status or change the switch) the status of the error
path between the local array and external array 1.
2.
Execute the Check Paths & Restore Vol. command using External Storage XP. For instructions, see
Checking the connection status and resuming external LU operations (Check Paths & Restore Vol.)
3.
Change resource group 1’s execution node to node 2 using NAS Blade Manager (failover).
If resource group 1’s status is Offline, this operation is not required.
