drive_group ‑acceptMisplacedDriveGroups

Accepts one or more drive groups that are misplaced.

SYNOPSIS

drive_group -acceptMisplacedDriveGroups
   ‑driveGroup drive-group-id-or-fqn [,drive-group-id-or-fqn]...

[{‑sessionKey | ‑u admin‑user ‑oracleFS oracle‑fs‑system}]
   [{‑outputformat | ‑o} { text | xml }]
   [{‑timeout timeout‑in‑seconds | ‑verify | ‑usage | ‑example | ‑help}]

DESCRIPTION

When a Drive Enclosure is moved from one Drive Enclosure string to another string, a possibility exists that the data in flash-backed memory (FBM) could be lost.

When an Oracle FS System is cleanly shut down, the system writes all of the data that exists in the FBM to the appropriate drive groups. No data is lost.

When the system is not cleanly shut down, for example, as the result of a sudden power failure, the system is not able to write the data that exists in FBM to the drive groups. In this situation, if you then move a Drive Enclosure , or the drives in an entire drive group from a Drive Enclosure from one string to another string, data can be lost during a system restart operation.

CAUTION

If you run the drive_group ‑acceptMisplacedDriveGroups command under these circumstances, the system cannot determine the location of the drive groups and data will be lost. This is similar to clearing Pinned Data, except that it will affect all volumes on the Drive Enclosure or drive group. To avoid data loss, whenever possible return the Drive Enclosure to its original string.

In this scenario, the drive groups in the moved Drive Enclosure are referred to as misplaced drive groups.

Note: Administrators with primary administrator, admin1, admin2, monitor, or support roles are authorized to run the drive_group ‑acceptMisplacedDriveGroups command.

OPTIONS

‑driveGroup: Specifies the fully qualified name (FQN) or the unique identifier (ID) of the drive group that is misplaced and that you want to accept.
CAUTION
When the ‑acceptMisplacedDriveGroups subcommand is run, the data in the flash-backed memory that is associated with the specified drive group is lost.
