VNXe 3150 SP doesn't contain a valid partition table

Hi,

I would try to reboot again and see if it comes up. You may also want to reseat the SPs. If that doesn’t work you may need to reimage them.

Hello Josh, thanks for reply...we have tried to clear boot counters, reboot SP as well as reimage..however ending up with the same issue. Looks like it cannot mount stystem partion.

Thanks , unfortunatelly this VNXe is not under support anymore.

I think the best option is for you call phone support, they may need to remote into your SPs.

it should take it out of service mode and try to boot normally. 

Try svc_reimage --clear and rebooting

We have already tried to remove boot counters and boot to normal mode, but still stuck in service mode after reboot

svc_rescue_state -c

svc_shutdown -r

Strange is that reimage procedure took just approx 2 minutes and disaplying errors

From boot procedure it looks like it cannot mount ssd partition due to missing filesystem type

Thanks Josh, I didnt find "--clear" option in the manual with service commands, can you please provide some info what it does ? 

Ok, yeah I don’t have anything else to try, it is probably replace the SPs or pay for fee based phone support.

@igmacak​ was you able to find solution for your problem or not? I have exactly the same problem with our 3150 model and can't fix it
