Chapter 9 Troubleshooting Virtualization Engine Devices 129
Sun Proprietary/Confidential: Internal Use Only
Diagnosing a creatediskpools(1M)
Failure
When modifying the Sun StorEdge T3+ array configuration on a Sun StorEdge 6900
series, the system should automatically create disk pools. If the virtualization engine
cannot find two paths to all Sun StorEdge T3+ array LUNs, however, the multipath
drives cannot be created. If this happens, the following procedure can help
troubleshoot the problem:
1. Inspect the SUNWsecfg log file (/var/adm/log/SEcfglog) to see if any errors are
indicated.
In the following example, creatediskpools(1M) for t3b0 indicates a missing Sun
StorEdge T3+ array path.

There are no eligible drives to create MultiPath drive automatically.

LUNS have 2 paths to the virtualization engine pair, then re-run
