I have a client with an old, old (like 7 years old) Array 110;
ssaadm disp c0 provides the following output;
SPARCstorage Array 110 Configuration
(ssaadm version: 1.20 97/05/14)
Controller path:/devices/sbus@2,0/SUNW,soc@d,10000/SUNW,pln@a0000000,78a833:ctlr
DEVICE STATUS

3 Drive: 0,2 (PCFW) NOT READY Drive: 4,2 (PCFW)
4 Drive: 0,3 (PCFW) NOT READY Drive: 4,3 (PCFW)
5 Drive: 0,4 (PCFW) NOT READY Drive: 4,4 (PCFW)
6 Drive: 1,0 (PCFW) Drive: 3,0 (PCFW) Drive: 5,0 (PCFW)
7 Drive: 1,1 (PCFW) Drive: 3,1 (PCFW) Drive: 5,1 (PCFW)
8 Drive: 1,2 (PCFW) Drive: 3,2 (PCFW) Drive: 5,2 (PCFW)
9 Drive: 1,3 (PCFW) Drive: 3,3 (PCFW) Drive: 5,3 (PCFW)
10 Drive: 1,4 (PCFW) Drive: 3,4 (PCFW) Drive: 5,4 (PCFW)
Which looks well dodgy. The ssaadm utility doesn't hang with an I/O error, but /var/adm/messages is receiving regular OFFLINE/ONLINE messages. As anticipated, some Veritas plexes are showing NO DEVICE.
Can anyone guide me on the likely diagnosis of the problems with half of Tray 2? Particulary the NOT READY and OPEN FAILED. Is is sufficient to attempt to spin-up the disks individually, or all the disks in the tray. Or is a power-off of the array required before I start thinking duff disks or cables?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
