Why is there no command line for a failed disk drive ?

[pippen23]

In the past couple months, we have had a couple disk drives fail, replacement parts ordered and shipped to us. But, there is no Netapp command to tell which disk has failed from the command line...so, I end up walking down to the basement, checking for an amber light, why ? Why is there no disk show command status =failed ???

Grrr

Try... 

cluster::>storage disk show -container-type broken  

(there's several other variations too) . 

[pippen23]

-container-type -container-name
MDC-1N01::> storage disk show -container-type broken
There are no entries matching your query.

MDC-1N01::>

This is a false positive after changing out a failed disk, and, the amber light is on the disk and shelf. I am looking for a command to determine what is the status of the amber light on a disk(or any disk), without having to march down to the datacenter to check the status.

Here's a few commands to help understand about storage/disk faults.

::> storage disk show -broken

::> storage disk error show

::> node run -node <name> -command "storage show fault -v"

If there is an amber light on after the disk change it's probably not assigned.    

But as far as disk status in the shelf.   check out this command:   

CLUSTER::> storage shelf show -bay

storage shelf show -instance will give you a lot of detail about the shelves / disks 

[tekievb]

You can run the commands below:

cluster::> storage show disk -broken or system node run -node NODENAME "vol status -f"

If you have quite a few shelves/disks, I always ensure that I turn the led_on just to ensure the lights are on and disk is easily identified.

system node run -node NODENAME  (will take you to the old prompt like back in 7-mode)

priv set -advanced

led_on diskID

Once the disk has been replaced you may need to assign disk ownership if auto assign is not enabled.

@pippen23 Following up to see if you are still looking for the solution.

[pippen23]

working with support, turns out I may have a bad bay in a shelf...ouch!

Failing over the cluster and a giveback fixed the issue, we needed to do s SCSI reset, which cleared the error.
