8200 new disks

Post by admkumar »

Hello all.
There's a single-shelf 8200 with 8 x 3.84 (pd0 - pd7) where another 16 x 3.84 have been added (pd8 - pd24).
Now i observe some strange thing with space distribution after more than 12 hrs passed.

As i understand admithw and tunesys have started and completed automatically.

But as you can see even "old" disks are 34 GB used, when odd "old" disks 455 GB used.
New even disks are 910 GB used and new odd - 690 GB used.

And there are some used spare chunklets reported:
cli% showspare -used
Pdid Chnk LdName LdCh State Usage Media Sp Cl From To
0 3110 log0.0 5 normal ld valid Y N 7:3572 ---
0 3111 log0.0 13 normal ld valid Y N 7:3571 ---
1 3110 log1.0 3 normal ld valid Y N 7:3567 ---
1 3111 log1.0 13 normal ld valid Y N 7:3566 ---
---------------------------------------------------------
Total chunklets: 4


And showspace reports zeroes:

Is that normal?

Can i just initiate tunesys to rebalace array with active workloads?

Thanks

Yes, you can do tunesys.


If the system is heavy loaded it is wise to watch the performance metrics as tunesys generates a lot of data movement and if the array is heavy loaded you might see increased latency and reduced performance if you’re doing data reduction or generally pushing the system to its limit.
