Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide

ProcedureHow to Resume a Volume Resynchronization Process

  1. Assume the Primary Administrator role, or become superuser.

    The Primary Administrator role includes the Primary Administrator profile. To create the role and assign the role to a user, see Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

  2. Use the metastat command to view the status of the RAID-1 volume and associated submirrors.


    # metastat mirror-name
    

    or


    metastat -a
    
  3. Use the metasync volume command to resume the resynchronization process.


    # metasync volume
    

Example 11–18 Resuming a Volume Resynchronization Process

The following example illustrates how to resume the resynchronization process on a volume that is part of the disk set blue. Notice that the submirrors are in the “Resync cancelled” state before running the metasync command. Once the metasync command is issued, the resynchronization process resumes.


# metastat -a

    Submirror 0: blue/d1
      State: Resync cancelled
    Submirror 1: blue/d2
      State: Okay
