Hi,
I have a V880 / Solaris 8 with 12 FC-AL disks and a singe T3..
Following document 816-0776-10 (StorEdge T3/T3+ Administrator's Guide),
I have patched OS and T3, and I have successfully created a RAID5 volume:
t3:/:<12>vol list
volume capacity raid data standby
v1 253.4 GB 5 u1d1-8 u1d9
t3:/:<13>vol stat
v1 u1d1 u1d2 u1d3 u1d4 u1d5 u1d6 u1d7 u1d8 u1d9
mounted 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
The problem is that the V880 is unable to "see" the newly-created
volume on the T3 array. According to the aforementioned document,
Solaris 8 OS should automatically become aware of the new volume.
There are instructions for Solaris 7 (11/99) or older (which would make
the OS "see" the new T3 volume), basically ``luxadm insert'' and ``reboot -r''.
I have executed both, to no avail.
Any comments and help are greatly appretiated.
I have included below some information about the V880 host and the T3 array.
Best Regards,
Stoyan Genov
