SUMMARY: Can't see all disk on a A1000 after 64 bit upgrade

Thanks to Stan, Linh, and Darren, my /kernel/drv/sd.conf was overwritten
with the upgrade.  I just needed to replace with the original and reboot.


Thanks Again,


billd.

Aha!! The installation of Raid Manager *does* make changes to
/kernel/drv/sd.conf!! (at least it did on the third machine I checked)...

Oops... The keyboard was in motion before the brain was in gear!! I had a
look at a couple of systems, and neither have any changes to sd.conf... I
was thinking of a situation where a 3rd-party FC-AL disk enclosure needed
changes to sd.conf for the scsi targets that it was using (17-24 if I
recall)

Are the other LUNs visible from a probe-scsi-all?

Check /kernel/drv/sd.conf.... You might need to specify the existence of any
LUNs other than LUN 0.

Did you reinstall raid manager after the upgrade?  It looks like your
/kernel/drv/sd.conf got reset back to the original copy.  That would
only have support for disks with lun number 0, not higher.

Try to restore the /kernel/drv/sd.conf, reboot then it will see all the
disks. You can compare the old and new upgrade to see the diff.
Good luck, Linh

I have a E420r running Solaris 8 01/01 and Oracle 8i.  The 420 has 2 18 GB
internal drives and a StorEdge A1000 with 4 18 GB disks attached.  I need to
upgrade Oracle to 9i 64 bit, but the system was originally configured as 32
bit Solaris.  So yesterday I used Solaris 8 2/02 disks to upgrade the system
and add the 64 bit support.  After doing the upgrade I can only see one of
the disks on the A1000, c2t5d0s0, but none of the other 3.

When I boot the system I get the following message :
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

When I try to run fsck -y /dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0  I get :  Can't open
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0  .  When I boot and do a format only the 2 internal an
one disk on the array are showing.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as
this is a production machine.
