I got one response which is to reboot the host. I googled around and found the answer on Sunmanagers archive. format-->select disk--->type--->autoconfigure (option 0). This resets the geometry of the disk. The meta head was reclaimed from an old host causing it to see the old disk size. Lesson learnt is to search the archive/google with proper phrase. Thanx -Shyam Original Question: I created two six member 48 GB metas ( size 8GB) on a Sunfire v880, Solaris 9.0 server connected to a DMX1000. One meta shows up fine as 48GB. But the second one is only 16GB. inq/syminq reports the meta size as 48GB, but format reports it as 16GB. Is there a fix without rebooting the server ? I have seen this happen before when I created a 1.2TB LUNs(for Netbackup DSSUs) and a reboot fixed it. Reboot is a last option as it is a production server. _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Tue Jan 17 13:03:02 2006
