IBM XIV 维护实训（Lab）

Troubleshooting & Maintenance
Lab Activities

Each person in the group should get the opportunity to connect their laptop to the machine and test all the GUI and XCLI commands.

1: Set up laptop to accept DHCP on Ethernet Port

1. Wireless may need to be disabled

2: Check Component LEDs

1. Check all LEDs on each component
2. Note any error conditions

3: Connect Laptop to Technician port, check connectivity

1. Check to make sure you have received an address from DHCP server
2. ipconfig /all
3. Ping 14.10.202.250

4: Start GUI

1. Check to make sure system is Fully Redundant
2. Check to make sure all components are available

5: Start XCLI

1. Xcli –c INSTALL –u <用户名> –p <密码> state_list
2. What is “system_state” value? _________

6: Check Events

1. Check events using GUI
2. Check events using XCLI
3. Note last entry time ___________________
4. Check Internal events using XCLI
5. Xcli –c INSTALL –u <用户名> –p <密码> event_list internal=yes

7: Phase out a drive - GUI

1. Right click on any drive in the system. Select Phase Out -> Failed
2. Note what happens
3. Wait for system to become redundant
4. Physically reseat the drive you phased out (Make sure it’s the correct one!!!)
5. What happens to available space?
6. Right click on the drive and perform “Test”
7. Wait for drive to become “Yellow”
8. Right click on the drive and phase it back in.

8: Phase out a drive – XCLI

1. xcli –c INSTALL component_list filter=notok
2. xcli –c INSTALL component_phaseout component=1:Disk:12:5
3. xcli –c INSTALL component_list filter=notok
4. Wait for “failed” state
5. xcli –c INSTALL monitor_redist
6. Wait for “No Processes”
7. Physically reseat the drive you phase out (Make sure it’s the correct one!!!)
8. xcli –c INSTALL component_test
9. xcli –c INSTALL component_list filter=notok
10. Wait for “Ready” state
11. xcli –c INSTALL component_phasein component==1:Disk:12:5
12. xcli –c INSTALL component_list filter=notok
13. Drive should not appear in the list

9: Check Events

1. Check to see what events were created during this activity
2. Check internal events to see what entries were created during this activity

10: Phase out an entire module (Chose module 5 or 6)

1. Perform the same sequence of events to phase out an entire module using GUI and XCLI
2. What happens to available space?
3. What happens to UPSes? Why?
4. UPS should not go offline at GA. UPS should become active once communications are restored (may have to perform “Test”)

11: Check Events

1. Check to see what events were created during this activity
2. Check internal events to see what entries were created during this activity

12: Phase out a UPS

1. Perform the same sequence of events to phase out a UPS using GUI and XCLI
2. Once Phased Out, practice removal of battery
3. Do not need to run “Test” on UPS or RPS

13: Check Events

1. Check to see what events were created during this activity
2. Check internal events to see what entries were created during this activity

14: Simulate a failed drive by physically pulling a drive out without phasing it out

1. Check Events to see the new entries created
2. Use steps above to test and phase drive back in

15: Simulate a failed UPS by turning one off using the power button on the front

1. Be sure the other 2 UPSes are operational before performing this task
2. Check Events to see the new entries created
3. Turn UPS back on. It should become available without any further action

16: Simulate a failed module by pulling power to a running module

1. Check Events to see the new entries created
2. Use steps above to test and phase module back in
