Raid group is missing 2 disks.

 

it says, 2 disk missing and a reconstruction that is stack in 99%. i tried to manually failed or replace the disk but no luck.

 

Anyone know this issue?

 

Thanks.

 

John

This looks like 7-mode box with 3 failed disks in a raid-group which means you lost the aggregate.

 

You need to call Netapp support if that is the case, and they might be able to help you recover with a wafl iron.

Unfortunately, this machine dont have MA anymore, but the question is, why this aggregate is not reconstructing or stop on reconstructing even it have plenty of spare. i will check on wafle iron, it may help me on this issue.

i already check wafle iron but i think this is not applicable on this issue.

 

base on the KB the i read, this are the condition that must be met before running wafle iron.

 

  • RAID must be in an online or restricted/degraded state.
  • The WAFL file system must be mounted.
  • The file system may be wafl_inconsistent.

 

i think wafle iron can help me on this.

You lost three disks, not two.  I doubt you lost three simulatenous disks at the same time so  perhaps failed drives weren't replaced in time, hence why you lost three and the aggregate.

 

Check your messages file and look for when the failed disks failed.

Spare disk was never empty on this Machine, do reconstructing of disk is 1 at a time? because i see only 1 reconstructing and it is stack at 99% IDK why.
