3-6 Sun StorEdge A1000 and A3x00/A3500FC Best Practices Guide November 2002
DacStore size is different between LUNs created under RAID Manager 6.0/RAID
Manager 6.1 vs. RAID Manager 6.1.1/RAID Manager 6.22x. See Section 3.2.7,
“DacStor Size (Upgrades)” on page 3-8.
LUN creation under RAID Manager 6.22x.
hot_add is a new command introduced in RAID Manager 6.22x and patch
106552-04 in RAID Manager 6.1.1_u1/2. It cleans up the Solaris device tree by
running devfsadm (Solaris 8 and later) or the following set of commands:
drvconfig, devlinks, and disks. hot_add was available in RAID Manager
6.1.1_u1/2 in /Tools/dr_hotadd.sh on the CD.
3.2.2 LUN Numbers
LUN numbers are allocated in sequence by RAID Manager 6 starting from zero.
The boot device has to be LUN 0.
You must always have a LUN 0. Refer to FIN I0573-2.
3.2.3 The Use of RAID Levels
See the "RAID Level" section in Chapter 2 in the Sun StorEdge RAID Manager 6.1.1
Users Guide or Sun StorEdge RAID Manager 6.22 Users Guide for various RAID
levels available on the A3x00 RAID controller. The configuration GUI also gives a
description of the RAID level selected during LUN creation.
RAID 1 and RAID 5 will take advantage of the hardware RAID controller to
improve performance and data availability.
RAID 0 LUN does not offer any redundancy. If a single drive fails, all data on the
LUN is lost (see the "RAID level" description in Chapter 2 in the Sun StorEdge
RAID Manager 6.1.1 Users Guide or Sun StorEdge RAID Manager 6.22 Users Guide.
3.2.4 Cache Mirroring
See the "Changing Cache Parameters" section under the "Maintenance and
Tuning" chapter in the Sun StorEdge RAID Manager 6.1.1 Users Guide or Sun
StorEdge RAID Manager 6.22 Users Guide.
Write cache is always turned off for a short duration ( ~ 15 min.) after a reboot or
reset of the A3x00 controller module until the battery is ready.
Write cache will be disabled when the battery strength drops below 80%.
Write cache will be off for all LUNs if the timer of the battery is greater then two
years. See Section 5.2.8, “Battery Unit” on page 5-13.
