Symptoms
There may be a situation sometimes when the disk trays in a SE53x0 NAS show all the disks as OK physically (from LED status etc.) but the disks are not available for use through the NAS GUI or CLI. The solution is to re-initialise the disk using the NAS Recovery Manager (NRM) or Santricity.
Caution : The procedure to initialize the disk will remove all the configuration from the disk.

Resolution
The above symptoms might happen if a disk assigned to a LUN was moved to another LUN in a different or same tray.If the original lun isn't deleted, or if the drives being introduced were not part of an active volume, the problem is
avoided.
Procedure:
1. Open the Santricity or NRM application.
2. Click on Edit->Add Device
3. Punch in the IP address of the storage controller and click OK.
4. Right click on your array under Out-of-band Storage Arrays Tab and click Manage Storage Array.
5. Note that some of the disks are shown with a yellow diamond symbol on them. These are the disks which are unavailable for use.
6.Click on Advanced -> Recovery -> Initialize -> Drive.
7.This operation needs to be repeated on all drives that went offline and the drives available for use.

Comment: Hi, Vickie and Satinder,

Before I publish this article, can you please tell me if a StorageTek 5320 NAS appliance is the same as a Sun StorEdge 5310 NAS Appliance ?

The reason I am asking about this is to do with TradeMarking.

Please let me know if they are the same product...

Best Regards,

Andy
