Description

After an appliance has rebooted, it may get stuck while verifying the RAID drive.

Issue/Introduction

This article explains how to resolve a RAID issue when the status never stops reflecting a VERIFY PAUSED state on LMI appliances.

Environment

Only applicable to H3 hardware appliance models.

Resolution

When you look at the RAID Status in the Web UI, you can see the RAID drive is Verifying.

1.  SSH to the appliance and log in as ”toor”
2.  Run these commands:
$ tw_cli /c0 show all
 
3.  Check for the following lines in the output:
Unit  UnitType  Status         %Cmpl  Stripe  Size(GB)  Cache  AVerify  IgnECC
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
u0    RAID-5    VERIFY-PAUSED  0      64K     447.003   ON     OFF      OFF      
 
Note: Your values will be slightly different, but you should be looking for the VERIFY-PAUSED status.
 
4. Check the appliance after five minutes to see if any progress has been made.  If not then continue to the next step.
5. Execute the following:
$ tw_cli              <<< To get to the tw_cli command prompt
//localhost> maint verify c0 u0 stop
//localhost> /c0 show all     <<< To confirm the Verify has stopped.
