Fault Recovery -- HP Continuous Access EVA for Disaster Tolerance Applications

High Availability

All EVA3000 models provide redundant cooling, power redundancy and environmental monitoring. Drives and most solution components are hot swappable. Each solution is configured with dual controllers that operate in dual redundant mode. Each controller has a pair of FC host ports. In the event of a path failure, the alternate path to the controller can be utilized with the use of multi-path software in the Operating System or in Secure Path software. The M5314A FC drive enclosure also supports dual redundant FC loops that provide load balancing and redundant paths should either FC loop become unavailable. The M5314A also has a mini FC hub on each FC loop; so that the FC loop can be rerouted should the next enclosure (disk or controller) in the loop become unavailable. The M5314A FC Drive Enclosure supports hot plug (power on) removal or insertion of FC high performance disk drives and FATA disk drives. All EVA3000 models are 2 Gb FC Switched Fabric "enabled" and can operate on 2 Gb or 1 Gb FC Switched Fabric SANs. They can co-exist in the same FC SAN with EVA4000, EVA5000, EVA6000, EVA8000, MA6000/MA8000/EMA12000/EMA16000 FC and RA8000/ESA12000 FC storage solutions. A management server is required on the SAN running Microsoft Windows or an existing HP OpenView Storage Management Appliance I, II, or III is required to manage EVA models. HP StorageWorks Command View EVA provides the capability to manage the EVA3000 and is installed on the management server or Storage Management Appliance. This powerful tool provides an easy mechanism to manage up to 16 EVA units in a SAN configuration. HP Command View EVA is purchased separately from the VCS media kit. Fibre Channel host connections provide up to 200 MB bandwidth for each path. Each controller has two Fibre Channel host ports (four ports in a redundant pair of controllers) assuring the availability of bandwidth for the most demanding applications. In addition, 2.5 GB of cache per controller pair ensures high performance. Mirrored write caching capability maintains optimal availability while assuring data integrity in the event of a failure.

Power Distribution
EVA cabs (based on the HP 10,000 Series Rack) are equipped with suitable 0U Power Distribution Units (PDUs) according to the voltage used in the country the solution is ordered. These PDUs allow redundant power and are located in the bottom and back of the cabinet for power cable entrance by the floor. The PDUs are 220/240V and 100V. The 220/240V PDUs are 0U high with a total of two AC power cords extending outside the cabinet The EVA 36U and 42U 100V PDU Cabinets supports are not to exceed power draw of 127V AC at 24Amps (per PDU pair); there are 2 PDU pairs per cabinet. This allows for the addition of additional EVAs or other equipment to the cabinet. Various PDU sizes are available with the Rack System/E as well as additional accessory choices such as blanking panels, doors and sides. For redundancy, order PDUs in quantities of two. The Rack System/E provides the added capability of integrating HP-UX servers, switches, as well as additional EVA3000 components (choose the PDU with the appropriate amperage for optional and additional components).

Total Cost of Ownership

The unique virtual architecture allows up to twice the normal effective capacity utilization of traditionally architected storage offerings. And with Virtually Capacity-Free Snapshot (Vsnap), significant duplicate capacity requirements can be eliminated resulting in fewer/smaller storage acquisitions.

This chapter provides host connectivity information and links to components you need to support your operating system with an Enterprise Virtual Array storage system. It is important that you proceed in the following order: Install the Fibre Channel adapter Update the Alpha SRM and Fibre Channel HBA rmware Check the Tru64 UNIX driver version Update the Tru64 UNIX driver Add new FCAs on an existing Tru64 UNIX operating system Use the HP StorageWorks Command View EVA and Storage System Scripting Utility Work with clusters

Installing the Fibre Channel adapter
Supported Fibre Channel adapters (FCAs) must be installed in the host server to communicate with the Enterprise Virtual Array. NOTE: Traditionally, the adapter used to connect the host server to the fabric is called a host bus adapter (HBA). The server HBA used with the EVA3000/5000 is called a Fibre Channel adapter (FCA). You may also see the adapter referred to as a Fibre Channel host bus adapter (FC HBA) in other related documents. Follow the hardware installation rules and conventions for your server type. The FCA is shipped with its own documentation for installation. Refer to that documentation for complete instructions. You need the following items to begin: FCA boards and the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer The server hardware manual for instructions on installing adapters Tools to service your server FCA rmware NOTE: The FCA FW is available from the Alpha SRM FW update CD image, 6.9 or later. You can download the latest FCA FW from the following website: http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/rmware/index.html The FCA board plugs into a standard PCI slot in the host system. Refer to the hardware manual for instructions on plugging in boards.
Updating the Alpha SRM and Fibre Channel HBA rmware
To update the Alpha SRM and FC HBA rmware: 1. Boot the Alpha SRM FW update CD from the SRM prompt.
NOTE: The recommended SRM version is 7.3. The minimum SRM version is 6.9. The following example uses dqa0 as the CD drive designation: P00>>>b dqa0 2. Enter the following command after the CD boots and the UPD prompt appears: UPD>List The list command checks the current versions against the new versions of rmware. 3. Enter the following command to update the rmware versions: UPD>Update pg* 4. Enter the following command to verify that the adapter and SRM rmware are updated: UPD>List
Checking the Tru64 UNIX driver version
The FCA device driver for Tru64 UNIX (emx) is installed as part of the operating system. The patch kit updates the driver to the latest revision. HP recommends that you check the version to ensure compatibility with the Enterprise Virtual Array. To check for supported versions, see the HP StorageWorks 3000/5000 Enterprise Virtual Array connectivity for Tru64 release notes. As your system starts, startup information is logged in a le called messages where, among many other items, the version of the installed FCA drivers and FW are recorded. Use the following procedure to ensure you have the latest version: 1. View the messages le by entering the following command: # more /var/adm/messages |grep wwn 2. Inspect the latest entry line for KGPSA (the FCA name) as shown in the following example: Nov F/W Nov F/W Nov F/W Nov F/W 3 08:34:57 priv16 vmunix: FCA-2684 : Driver Rev Rev 1.91X6(1.40A0) : wwn 10000000c08:34:57 priv16 vmunix: FCA-2684 : Driver Rev Rev 1.91X6(1.40A0) : wwn 10000000c93740b08:34:57 priv16 vmunix: FCA-2684 : Driver Rev Rev 1.91X6(1.40A0) : wwn 10000000c93740b08:34:57 priv16 vmunix: FCA2354 : Driver Rev Rev 3.93A0(1.40A1) : wwn 10000000c92a79c2 2.17 : 2.17 : 2.17 : 2.17 :

3. Ensure that you have the correct driver revision for the operating system: For Tru64 UNIX 5.1A, driver version 2.11 or later. For Tru64 UNIX 5.1B, driver version 2.17 or later. NOTE: If you need to update the driver, install the latest patch kit for your operating system.

Host connectivity

Updating the Tru64 UNIX driver
The FC HBA driver is automatically updated when the patch kit is loaded. You can locate the patch at the following web site: http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/patch
Adding new FCAs on an existing Tru64 UNIX operating system
To add an FCA to an existing Tru64 UNIX operating system after the latest patch kit is installed: 1. Boot genvmunix from the SRM console: P00>>>boot -file genvmunix 2. Rebuild the kernel, copy the new kernel to /vmunix, and reboot the system. In the following example, PRIV4 is the systems host name. #doconfig #cp /sys/PRIV4/vmunix /vmunix # reboot
Using HP StorageWorks Command View EVA and Storage System Scripting Utility
The Storage System Scripting Utility (SSSU) is delivered as part of HP StorageWorks Command View EVA. The SSSU is a command line interface you can use to issue commands directly to the controller. The latest version of the SSSU is available on the software downloads website: http://www.hp.com/support/downloads. Under Storage, click Storage Software and then select HP StorageWorks Command View EVA Software under Storage Device Management Software. Select the version of HP StorageWorks Command View EVA Media Kit you want to download.

Working with clusters

Clustering is connecting two or more computers together in such a way that they behave like a single computer. Clustering is used for parallel processing, load balancing, and fault tolerance. The supported clustering software for Tru64 UNIX is TruCluster. For the latest version of the supported clustering software, see HP StorageWorks 3000/5000 Enterprise Virtual Array connectivity for Tru64 UNIX release notes.
This chapter describes how to test connections between the operating system host server and the Enterprise Virtual Array. Virtual disks are set up and presented to your host server to test the connectivity and to begin using the disks. NOTE: Most of the following sections refer to HP Command View EVA. More information about HP Command View EVA is available on the HP website: http://www.hp.com/support/manuals. Click Storage Software under Storage and then select HP StorageWorks Command View EVA software under Storage Device Management Software.

Adding hosts

You can add a host using HP Command View EVA software. You must add each FCA installed in the host system for that FCA to work with EVA. Execute the following procedure: 1. Collect information on World Wide Names (WWNs) for each FCA on your server. You need this information when selecting the host FCAs in HP Command View EVA. 2. Use HP Command View EVA to add the host. Choose your host from the pull-down menu. NOTE: Adding hosts through the HP Command view EVA consists of adding each FCA installed in the host. Use Add Host to add the rst adapter; use Add Port to add subsequent adapters. Ensure that you add a port for each active FCA. 3. Ensure that the host FCAs have been added by inspecting the Host folder in the Navigation pane of HP Command View EVA. NOTE:

for HP Command View EVA.

For more information about using HP Command View EVA, see HP StorageWorks Interactive Help
For more information on using HP Command View EVA, see the HP Command View EVA documentation.
Creating and presenting virtual disks
To create and present additional virtual disks to the host servers: 1. Use HP Command view EVA to create a virtual disk on the EVA3000/5000. 2. Specify values for the following parameters: Virtual disk name Disk group Vraid level
Size Present to host (the host you just created) OS Unit ID (located on the Virtual Disk Properties window) Set this to a unique value for each virtual disk. The OS Unit ID must be unique across the entire SAN. NOTE: The OS unit ID is optional for Tru64 UNIX. However, HP recommends that each virtual disk have a unique ID number. You can use the OS unit ID to easily track the virtual disks presented to the Tru64 UNIX host. When you list the drives using hwmgr, they appear with the OS unit ID number you provide instead of the B/T/L information. 3. Select a LUN number if you chose a specic LUN on the Virtual Disk Properties window. 4. Restart the server or rescan the bus (see Scanning the bus).
Verifying virtual disks from the host
You can verify that operating system hosts can access the virtual disks created on the EVA3000/5000. The host can recognize EVA devices either through a system restart or by rescanning the bus.

Scanning the bus

Scan the bus for the virtual disk from Tru64 UNIX and then display information about the EVA3000/5000 devices. Start the scan with the following commands to ensure that all the virtual disks become visible to the host: For a noncluster conguration: # evmwatch -f [name sys.unix.*] | evmshow | grep completed & [1] 159102 # hwmgr -scan component hwmgr: Scan request successfully initiated A hardware scan has just completed Wait for the message A hardware scan has just completed and then, using the PID returned by the previous evmwatch command, kill the background evmwatch process. For example (where 159102 is the PID): Enter fg 159102, and then press Ctrl+C. For a cluster conguration: # evmwatch -f [name sys.unix.*] | evmshow | grep completed & [1] 159102 # hwmgr -scan component -cluster A hardware scan has hwmgr: Scan request hwmgr: Scan request hwmgr: Scan request just completed successfully initiated successfully initiated successfully initiated

A hardware scan has just completed A hardware scan has just completed A hardware scan has just completed Wait for the message A hardware scan has just completed to appear from each cluster member and then, using the PID returned by the previous evmwatch command, kill the background evmwatch process. For example (where 159102 is the PID): Enter fg 159102 and then press Ctrl+C.
Testing connections to the Enterprise Virtual Array
#hwmgr -v d | grep HSV1 536: 537: 538: 539: /dev/disk/dsk464c /dev/disk/dsk465c /dev/disk/dsk465c /dev/disk/dsk467c HP HP HP HP HSV110 HSV110 HSV110 HSV110 IDENTIFIER=70 IDENTIFIER=71 bus-0-targ-11-lun-72 bus-0-targ-11-lun-73
If you are unable to access the virtual disk, do the following: Check the switch zoning database. Use HP Command View EVA to verify the host presentations. Verify all cabling to the switch, Enterprise Virtual Array, and host. Verify all rmware levels (check the associated Enterprise Virtual Array release notes for details). Ensure that you are running a supported version of the host operating system (see the operating system release notes). Check the SRM console rmware on Alpha servers. Ensure that the correct host is selected for this virtual disk and that a unique OS Unit ID is used in HP Command View EVA. Ensure that Tru64 UNIX is selected as the operating system for the virtual disk in HP Command View EVA. Check that the correct Tru64 FCA Device Driver (emx) is installed on the operating system.
Conguring virtual disks from the host
After you set up the virtual disks on the EVA3000/5000 and have rescanned or restarted the host, follow the host-specic conventions for conguring these new disk resources. For instructions on setting up disk resources, see the documentation that came with your server. The operating system treats an EVA virtual disk much like a SCSI disk. Use the following procedure to prepare your virtual disk for access by the operating system le system: 1. Create a le system on the virtual disk. 2. Mount the le system (to gain access to the virtual disk).
Creating partitions on a virtual disk using disklabel
Create the partitions on a virtual disk by issuing the disklabel command, which partitions the virtual disk for access by Tru64 UNIX. NOTE: For more information about the disklabel utility, see the disklabel man page. To read and write a disk pack label and format disk partitions, issue the following command: # disklabel disk Where disk is the character device name found in /dev/rdisk. For example, to create partitions on device dsk464, issue the following commands: # disklabel -z dsk464 # disklabel -rw dsk464 To view a virtual disk partition on dsk464, issue the following command: # disklabel -r dsk464

Creating a le system on a virtual disk

1. Enter the following command to create an AdvFS domain: # mkfdmn /dev/disk/dsk63c test_dmn The following output is displayed: Warning: /dev/disk/dsk63c is marked in use for AdvFS. If you continue the operation you can possibly destroy existing data. CONTINUE? [y/n] 2. Enter y to continue. 3. Create a le set within an AdvFS domain using the following command: # mkfset test_dmn labset 4. Enter the following command to make a mount point for the le system: # mkdir lab1 5. Enter the following command to mount the AdvFS le system: # mount test_dmn#labset /lab1 6. Enter the following command to display the mounted volumes: # mount 7. Enter the following command to verify that a volume has been mounted: # df -k Output similar to the following is displayed: Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on root_domain #root 293625 25% //proc 0 100% /proc usr_domain #usr 1535096 28% /usr usr_domain #var 1535096 2% /var /dev/disk/dsk10c 3660695 0% /vraid1#1
