This procedure provides instructions to verify Oracle 6.4 TB NVMe SSD v1 operation on the host for supported Oracle Solaris and Oracle Linux operating systems. Verify Oracle 6.4 TB NVMe SSD v1 operation using Oracle Hardware Management Pack utility CLI tools.
Before You Begin
Verify that Oracle Hardware Management Pack is installed on the host.
For CLI command instructions, refer to Oracle Hardware Management Pack documentation at https://www.oracle.com/goto/ohmp/docs.
Ensure that you have access to the server (either directly or over the network).
Verify that the Fault-Service Required 6.4 TB NVMe SSD status indicator is not lit and that the green Power status indicator is lit on the 6.4 TB NVMe SSDs that you updated. LED status indicators are: Green (operational), Amber (faulty disk ), Blue (SSD has been prepared for removal).
Refer to Status Indicators in Oracle 6.4 TB NVMe SSD User Guide.
For detailed instructions, refer to the server installation guide. For example, to log in to the target system through SSH or through Oracle ILOM Remote System Console Plus, do one of the following:
Type: ssh root@hostname, where hostname can be the DNS name or the IP address for the server host.
To launch an Oracle ILOM Remote System Console Plus session, refer to Launching Remote KVMS Redirection Sessions in the server administration guide.
Start an Oracle ILOM serial console session, type:
-->start /HOST/console
Are you sure you want to start /HOST/console (y/n)? y
You issue Oracle Hardware Management Pack commands from the operating system command-line interface.
# fwupdate list controller
In the following example, devices are enumerated in the output returned by the above command.
# fwupdate list controller ================================================== CONTROLLER ================================================== ID Type Manufacturer Model Product Name FW Version -------------------------------------------------------------------------- c0 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c1 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c2 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c3 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c4 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c5 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c6 NVMe Intel 0x0a54 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T QDV1RF35 c7 SAS LSI Logic 0x00ce Avago MegaRAID SAS 9361-1 4.710.00 c9 NET Intel 0x1533 Intel(R) I210 Gigabit Net -
In the above example, 6.4 TB NVMe SSD controllers c0 to c6 are enumerated in the output returned by the above command.
See Minimum Supported Oracle 6.4 TB NVMe SSD v1 Firmware Version.
To identify NVMe controllers and current firmware versions, type:
# nvmeadm list -v
To identify NVMe controllers that have updated firmware, view the Firmware Revision row in the output from the nvmeadm list -v command.
In the following example, controller SUNW-NVME-1 shows firmware version 8DV1RF30 in the output returned by the above command.
# nvmeadm list -v SUNW-NVME-1 PCI Vendor ID: 0x8086 Serial Number: PHLE7464009U6P4OGN Model Number: 7335940:ICDPC2DD2ORA6.4T Firmware Revision: QDV1RF35 Number of Namespaces: 1 root:~#
To check the selected 6.4 TB NVMe SSD health and SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) information, type:
# nvmeadm getlog -h
Ensure that the 6.4 TB NVMe SSDs have remaining drive life (Percentage Used) in the output returned by the above command.
# nvmeadm getlog -h F640-NVME-1 SMART/Health Information: Critical Warning: 0 Temperature: 312 Kelvin Available Spare: 100 percent Available Spare Threshold: 10 percent Percentage Used: 0 percent Data Unit Read: 0x1 of 512k bytes.
