Impact

The purpose of this communication is to provide service personnel with information regarding recent SE33x0, and SE351x Array issues in a set of related Sun Alerts.

Some of these issues are specific to 4.1x firmware after upgrading from 3.2x and include the following:

  • 102011: Sun StorEdge 33x0/3510 Arrays May Report a Higher Incidence of Drive Failures With Firmware 4.1x SMART Feature Enabled.
  • 102067: Sun Cluster 3.x Nodes May Panic Upon Controller Failure/Replacement Within Sun StorEdge 3510/3511 Arrays.
  • 102129: Disks May be Marked as Bad Without Explanation After "Drive Failure," "Media Scan Failed" or "Clone Failed" Events".
  • 102127: Performance Degradation Reported in Controller Firmware Releases 4.1X on Sun StorEdge[TM] 33x0/351x Arrays for All RAID Types, and Certain Patterns of I/O.

The remainder apply to arrays running both 3.2x or 4.1x firmware:

  • 102086: Failed Controller Condition May Cause Data Integrity Issues.
  • 102098: Insufficient Information for Recovery From Double Drive Failure for Sun StorEdge 33x0, 3510, 3511 Arrays.
  • 102128: Data Inconsistencies May Occur When Persistent SCSI Parity Errors are Generated Between the Host and the SE33x0 Array.
  • 102126: Recovery Behavior From Fatal Drive Failure May Lead to Data Integrity Issues.

Please carefully review these Sun Alerts to determine which are applicable to your storage environment.
