Celerra Default disks
Hi All,
I executed the command "nas_disk -l" in our Celerra-NX4 control station and i got the below output. Please let me know how many disks assigned to ~filestorage storage group by default? and how do i differentiate default disks and user data disks?
Regards,
Dhakshinamoorthy Balasubramanian

id 1-6 are OS disks, everything else is user LUNs. I just know but the size that the first 6 as OS.

Dynamox,
11GB - 2 no.s
2GB- 3no.s
30GB-1 no.
Could you please elaborate purpose of each LUNs? those six LUNs mapped to both blades or mapped to only active mover server_2?

i don't know the purpose of each individual LUN, i just know that's where DART operating system resides. See the "servers" column (1,2). That means those devices are presented to both datamovers, active on only one a time.

It is 2x 11GB , 3x 2GB and 32 GB in your case.
Control LUNs 0-4 (id 1-5 ) will have this fixed size and the sixth LUN will have different size (32 GB, 64 GB etc..) depending on the celerra model.
LUN 0 (id=1 in NAS) will have NASDB files and LUN 1 will have its backup.
I will have to have a look into the old notes to see what the other LUNs are for
.

They are all system volumes. As a matter of fact, the entirety of Target 0 is reserved for system LUNs. This means that any LUN ID below 16 (10h) is reserved as a Celerra system LUN.
If you do a df -h, you can see the disks and their purpose:
# df -lhP

Hi Bill,
I guess your "df -h" output belongs to control station's local HDD partition layout.

Hi,
The output is produced on the Control Station. The devices, however, come from two places:
- the hard drive of the Control Station (/dev/hd), and
- the back end LUNs, LUN 0 through 5 (/dev/sd). Those LUNs are served up by the Data Movers using NBS (network block services) and become available as SCSI disks.
The df output just makes it easy to see what they are used for and where they are mounted on the CS.
