After you have replaced all hardware at the disaster site, you must determine the system IDs of the replaced controller modules. You need the old system IDs when you reassign disks to the new controller modules.
Before you begin
All equipment at the disaster site must be powered off.
About this task
This discussion provides examples for four-node configurations. For eight-node configurations, you must account for any failures in the additional nodes on the second DR group.
The examples in this procedure are based on the following assumptions:
Site A is the disaster site.
node_A_1 has failed and is being completely replaced.
node_A_2 has failed and is being completely replaced.
node _A_2 is present in a four-node MetroCluster configuration only.
Site B is the surviving site.
node_B_1 is healthy.
node_B_2 is healthy.
node_B_2 is present in a four-node MetroCluster configuration only.
The controller modules have the following original system IDs:
Number of nodes in MetroCluster configuration | Node | Original system ID |
---|
Four | node_A_1 | 4068741258 |
node_A_2 | 4068741260 |
node_B_1 | 4068741254 |
node_B_2 | 4068741256 |
- From the surviving site, display the system IDs of the nodes in the MetroCluster configuration.
Number of nodes in MetroCluster configuration | Use this command |
Four or eight | metrocluster node show -fields node-systemid,ha-partner-systemid,dr-partner-systemid,dr-auxiliary-systemid |
Example
In this example for a four-node MetroCluster configuration, the following old system IDs are retrieved:
Node_A_1: 4068741258
Node_A_2: 4068741260
Disks owned by the old controller modules are still owned these system IDs.
metrocluster node show -fields node-systemid,ha-partner-systemid,dr-partner-systemid,dr-auxiliary-systemid
dr-group-id cluster node node-systemid ha-partner-systemid dr-partner-systemid dr-auxiliary-systemid
