No hardware error messages were received prior to the event, I understand that this is caused by a multi tiered storage passing data between the two storage systems during an autotiering operation. Would being on v 7.1.2 be a problem with this.
I don't have support, so I can't call into dell.
System was running fine before, I can't understand why dell has to hide their firmware updates from folks out of service period. If a firmware issue was the cause of my problem, then I should be able to update to the version that fixes my issue, How can I be left out in the cold like that with 4x PS6510 2x PS6110XS and and 1 PS6110S.
Hello, Just to make it clear about this condition. There is no way without help from support to get those volumes back online. There is no simple command to resolve it. A specific procedure has to be followed once the cause and extent is known. Each missing 'page' is 15MB of space. Those missing pages aren't accounted for now. The volume should have so many pages but now is reporting less. Regards, Don
Missing pages 15Mb size can be added manualy with third party software by data recovery professional companies who know how.
For example we do next (this is only for data recovery purposes in order bring back lost volumes)
Creating virtual array based on disks only, assembling blocks/pages 15Mb size like a puzzle based on EQL metadata , adding or removing manually lost pages. This way access to the volume is possible to archive.
