Solaris 8 VCS Cluster Nodes and Failed Disk in INQ

Hello all

I have two Solaris 8 VCS clusters attached to a cx700.  Recently, on each cluster, I removed access to some unused LUNs.  These LUNs still appear in INQ as follows (please ignore the smileys from the copy/paste):

$ sudo /opt/sanadmin/bin/inq -nodots |grep FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c3t3d3s2     GC     :                226  3000000   :      FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c3t3d6s2     GC     :                226  6000000   :      FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c3t3d7s2     GC     :                226  7000000   :      FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c4t4d3s2     GC     :                226  3000000   :      FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c4t4d6s2     GC     :                226  6000000   :      FAILED
/dev/rdsk/c4t4d7s2     GC     :                226  7000000   :      FAILED





Running devfsadm doesn't change anything.  Is this a hung scsi reservation?  I am worried that the only way to fix this will be to reboot, so I thought I would gather any thoughts/tips I can.

Any help is greatly appriciated!

OK, to me this looks like only a reconfig reboot will clear these 'ghost' devices

Do the same devices show in the output of 'format'? Or is it just 'inq'?

Have you tried running

devfsadm -C

To cleanup the device tree (remove dead device paths?)

The disk is visible in both format and INQ.  devfsadm -C doesn't clear up the issue.

That's what I was afraid of - bummer!

Thanks for the input.
