Assigning pool 0 drives on non-ADP systems at the disaster site (MetroCluster IP configurations)

If drives have been replaced at the disaster site and the system is not configured for ADP, you need to manually assign new drives to pool 0.

About this task

For ADP systems, the drives are assigned automatically.

  1. On one of the replacement nodes at the disaster site, reassign the node's pool 0 drives: storage disk assign -n number-of-replacement disks -p 0

    This command assigns the newly added (and unowned) drives on the disaster site. You should assign the same number and size (or larger) of drives that the node had prior to the disaster. The storage disk assign man page contains about performing more granular drive assignment.

  2. Repeat the step on the other replacement node at the disaster site.
