    I'm running into an issue when I execute> mpio_get_config -Av
    it return the following result:
    Frame id 1:
        Storage Subsystem worldwide name: 608e50018523200005265f2a
        Controller count: 2

        Partition 0:
        Storage Subsystem Name = 'P720A'
            hdisk#           LUN #   Ownership          User Label
            hdisk2              11   A (preferred)      datavgA
            hdisk3              12   B (preferred)      backupvgA

    SC_DISK_ERR4 implies he controller has reset itself due to an internal error condition This error above is an indication that there's something going on the storage side that should be reviewed

     

    How frequently is this happening.  How many paths to hdisk4 (lspath -l hdisk4)?  Are you sure that error is generated everytime you do the query?

    Hey, Garland, 

     

    Thanks for replied, however, storage manager didn't show any errors, but I'll check again.

    I didn't check how many paths to hdisk4, I will have to check.

    But I'm sure that everytime when I execute mpio_get_config -Av, that error is generated.
