Lost a Storage Unit
I am looking for some help in trying to re-add a storage unit after an error in an ESXi upgrade caused complete loss of the STU. A short history of the issue: VM team needed to upgrade the ESXi host that was hosting our media servers. The media servers each have a PureDisk storage unit attached. The media servers were turned off prior to the upgrade and during that upgrade, a mistake was made and the storage unit was reformatted. Once the server came back online it was obvious the drive was no longer available. I expired all the images from the catelog and then ran nbdelete to remove the deleted fragments. I was then able to remove the STU, DP and Storage server from NB. After removing the heirarchy of the failed STU, I restarted the NB services on both the Master and Media server. The storage server was added back without any issues, however when trying to create a Disk Pool there are no volumes found. I have verified the drive is attached, and read/writeable. I am assuming there is still an entry somewhere that still thinks this media server already has a PureDisk STU attached. Any help would be appreciated.Solved1.3KViews0likes4Comments
