I executed the command "nas_disk -l" in our Celerra-NX4 control station and i got the below output. Please let me know how many disks assigned to ~filestorage storage group by default? and how do i differentiate default disks and user data disks?
i don't know the purpose of each individual LUN, i just know that's where DART operating system resides. See the "servers" column (1,2). That means those devices are presented to both datamovers, active on only one a time.
They are all system volumes. As a matter of fact, the entirety of Target 0 is reserved for system LUNs. This means that any LUN ID below 16 (10h) is reserved as a Celerra system LUN.
If you do a df -h, you can see the disks and their purpose:
The output is produced on the Control Station. The devices, however, come from two places:
- the hard drive of the Control Station (/dev/hd), and
- the back end LUNs, LUN 0 through 5 (/dev/sd). Those LUNs are served up by the Data Movers using NBS (network block services) and become available as SCSI disks.
The df output just makes it easy to see what they are used for and where they are mounted on the CS.
