Andrew,

try this command on your shared SSA,

/usr/sbin/ssa/ssa_rescheck

on systems that have shared SSA, it will tell you who is using the disk
drive.

Hope this helps

James

Hi All,
We have just (for the first time) reconfigured our SSA
drawers so that 4 systems are in a loop with all their
SSA drawers. We intend to develop a manual failover
process to exploit this.

Of course, this means that each system now has a large
number of "hdisks" and pdisks belonging to the others.

Now, I can document these, or a process to identify
them, but is there a recommended approach to making
them identifiable on all systems ?
Should I be renaming the "hdiskn" to "node1_hdisknn" ?
What do you use ?
And come to mention it, is there a recognised document
for this kind of failover ?
Thanks in advance,
Andy
