Re: Issues with metaSAN

Hi Jeremy,

I did notice you are now in contact with our support team, which is good. I find it quite odd that the volume would get knocked out of the SAN Definition like this. You mentioned this happening twice in a row around 4h30 and only recently. Do you have any special processes or activities taking place at that moment (i.e. anti-virus, defrag or backup application that could interfere)?

I have seen occasional corrupted SAN Definition leading to odd behaviour before, but it is usually triggered by excessive manipulation of the SAN Definition (such as quickly adding/removing members without giving enough time to metaSAN to propagate the new Definition around). But if you have not been making lots of changes to your SAN Definition, it could also be something else.

Whatever the issue is, the fact everything else is working smoothly and this issue only started manifesting itself recently leads me to believe that our guys will be able to quickly figure it out.

Let us know how it goes!

Cheers,

Bernard
