Storage space status and required actions
To determine the state of each storage space and its chunks, examine the output of the onstat -d command. The storage space status determines the action you need to take to solve the problem. The database server must be online.
The following table describes onstat -d command output about chunk status and the actions required to solve the problems. The chunk status information is in the second position of the flags column in the first (storage spaces) and second (chunks) sections of the output.
| chunk flag | Storage space or chunk state | Action required |
|---|---|---|
| (No flag) | Storage space no longer exists. | Perform a point-in-time cold restore to a time before the storage space was dropped. |
| D | Chunk is down or storage space is disabled. | Perform a warm restore of the affected storage space. |
| I | Chunk is physically restored, but needs a logical restore. | Perform a logical restore. |
| L | Storage space is being logically restored. | Try the logical restore again. |
| N | Chunk is renamed and either down or inconsistent. | Perform a warm restore of the chunk when the physical device is available. |
| O | Chunk is online. | No action required. |
| P | Storage space is physically restored. | Perform a logical restore, if one is not already in progress. |
| R | Storage space is being restored. | Perform a physical or logical restore. |
| X | Storage space or chunk is newly mirrored. | No action required. |
