I am troubleshooting a vnxe with a performance storage pool. On this single storage pool there are 2 VMFS datastores. One data store is working fine and the other is showing a critical failure (25) in the health state. Is there anything that can be done to recover or fix the data on the datastore? If I run svc_storage_integritycheck I get below. I am confused because this datastore resides on the same storage pool as another good datastore.

You can’t repair a lun as a service user, as in most cases that can only be done as administrator or via support. You can try the steps listed in these 2 kb’s to see if they help.

its not in vmware but on storage. how i can solve this ?
I've managed to get access to the article, but that info are a bit scarce.Could you please elaborate a little bit more? Should I first check the type using /nas/bin/nas_server -l? If this is correct, I get permission denied running that command.
The storage pool has 114 GB of free space. On this pool there are 7 generic iSCSI storage "drives" all working except one. It could be that it run out of space, as users are heavy on it. But there was also en event: Storage Servers configured for SPA have stopped and will be restarted. After the restart of SPA the storage elements associated with storage resource started operating normally except one.
If you need me to diagnose something, please let me know what should I do.

Hello Docleroux,
Have you tried to run the following command to see if the host can see the partition?
partedUtil getptbl /vmfs/devices/disks/
If you can see the partition, then I would run the following command to try & fix it.
partedUtil fix /vmfs/devoces/disks/ - try to fix it
Here is also a link to some other steps that you can use to try to recover the partition.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
