MSDP volume state changes to DOWN when volume is unmounted
If a volume becomes unmounted, NetBackup changes the volume state to DOWN. NetBackup jobs that require that volume fail.
To determine the volume state
- Invoke the following command on the master server or the media server that functions as the deduplication storage server:
UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdevquery -listdv -stype PureDisk -U
Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevquery -listdv -stype PureDisk -U
The following example output shows that the DiskPoolVolume is UP:
Disk Pool Name : PD_Disk_Pool Disk Type : PureDisk Disk Volume Name : PureDiskVolume Disk Media ID : @aaaab Total Capacity (GB) : 49.98 Free Space (GB) : 43.66 Use% : 12 Status : UP Flag : ReadOnWrite Flag : AdminUp Flag : InternalUp Num Read Mounts : 0 Num Write Mounts : 1 Cur Read Streams : 0 Cur Write Streams : 0
To change the volume state to UP
- Mount the file system
After a brief period of time, the volume state changes to UP. No further action is required.
- If the volume state does not change, change it manually.
