Hello, I have a media server where the disks belonging to a specific enclosure are misbehaving. Their response times are extremely high using vxdmpadm iostat and i can also see from the OS logs that they are faulty. How can i just disable writes to those disks. I dont want to to completely disable the enclosure as we have data on it that may be used for restore purposes so we need to keep read access to it.Solved1.9KViews1like5CommentsProduct compatibility matrix for Storage foundation and cluster server
I am part of a services Org. in IBM that delivers solutions on POWER AIX systems. We have some very large enterprises which use both VCS and VSF products. I am trying to find an updated product compatibility matrix showing the following: List which VCS and VSF version and release levels are supported or compatible with current versions of PowerVM Virtual IO Server (version and release). VSF documentation indicates support for "OS Logical volume managers" (LVM and PowerVM Live Partition mobility (LPM).
