Sun StorEdge 3511 installation notes
pkgadd'd:
SUNWsccli SUNWscsa SUNWscsd SUNWscsu SUNWscui
SUNWscsd had a minor problem adding the ssconfig user, due to a uid
conflict with the ssadmin user just created. I made ssconfig a duplicate
of ssadmin – not sure that the home dir and shell and group are OK.
Rebooting, and... Although I didn't touch the networking, it's all
messed up. I did run-after though, so perhaps the default route got
toasted or something. Just had to replace the default route, because
of the weird netmask. This probably should be fixed.

1) For an overview of the install process
2) Why I can see FC-looking stuff in probe-scsi-all but not on the OS itself
3) What we need to do to get serial communications going between our

4.9.1 Configuring a Host COM Port to Connect to a RAID Array (from the
above installation document)
The RS-232 COM (serial) port on either controller module can be used to
configure and monitor the RAID array using the controller firmware. It
can be connected to a VT100 terminal, terminal emulation program,
terminal server, or the serial port of a server.
1. Use a null modem serial cable to connect the COM port of the RAID
array to the serial port on a host workstation.
A null modem serial cable is included in your package.
2. Set the serial port parameters on the workstation as follows:
* 38,400 baud
* 8 bit
* 1 stop bit
* No parity
If your host uses the Solaris operating system, see Section E.2, Using
the tip Command for Local Access to the Array for instructions about
setting up a tip session to communicate using the COM port.
To see platform-specific details for other operating systems, see the
appendix that describes the operating system your server uses.
Appendix D.2 (StorEdge 3000 series) DB9 COM Port
The COM port is a female DB9 connector that requires a male DB9 null
modem cable.

cyclades empirical pinout w alex
xmit 3 - nonzero v means output
gnd 4?
Rcv 6 - no v means input
matches cyclades' diagram
nothing's floating
if you connect a 6v to another port, and the v is 0, then that pin
is floating. If not floating, v should go to 6.
What if connect a 5 to a 12? Discuss later
ttyC17 for 3511 on console.nac
25 pin rs-232 is standardized less than 9 pin

the same.
thank tri for 3310 comments and loaning laptop!
Tri's laptop: std 9 pin pc connector

If you use Alex's breakout box, be sure to turn it off when you're done,
so the batteries don't run down

Approximately 9:20AM, 2005-08-19, called Dynamic Systems. Tried to reach
Ray first - no answer. Called inside sales (310) 337-4400 ext. 0, reached
someone. She indicated that someone would call me back within 15 minutes.
Immediate phone questions
Proportionalize urgency:
0) Hard deadline on Monday
1) I was on vacation until Tuesday
2) Tuesday I studied QFS
3) Wednesday I studied QFS
4) Thursday I worked with Judy and Alex on the serial comm
5) Today I'm scrambling to get an overview of the process :(
Overview of installation process:
0) General steps
1) What packages
2) What config files (mcf only?)
3) What commands
Communication with 3511:
1) Do we truly require 2 serial connections and not just one?
2) Can we do the configuration via fibre instead of serial, or are there
things that can only be done via serial?
3) Can we do the configuration via ethernet, once we've assigned an IP
address to the firmware?
4) Most important one? If configuring via serial, what keystroke will
refresh the screen? Our conserver is a bit confused by the running
count of seconds (or something like that). Tried mrxvt and xterm,
neither wanting to refresh screen or display something that looks useful.

Steve believed he had told me this before. I have nothing about it in
my notes from the meeting we had with DynSys and Sun.
Front and back of LUN, remainder in background
Yes I can call Steve Scharf's cell phone for help. See palm address book.
top controller (top serial port) is primary, bottom controller (bottom
serial port) is secondary. Will only need bottom controller if top
controller has problems.
Steve reiterated that we're going to require all of the recommended
patches - "I mentioned that", this is another thing that's not in my
notes, but I was probably assuming that autoinstall would include them,
which it doesn't - or at least didn't.
My growfs was taking forever, so I interrupted it by sending a break
and reset-all'ing. However, a subsequent growfs panicked the system.
:( I probably should've done something with -s, but why is this so
silly-complicated?
Anyway, I'm going to have to reinstall now.
2005-08-19
I've now tried both minicom and console/conserver, sending break, sending
^L, sending ^R, sending ^C. None of these are working. In console I
tried all 5-6 break sequences available - none appeared to do anything,
and in minicom I tried the only one available - and it got stuck.
Then tried ^A-^Z (except ^S) via console/conserver, but none of them
did anything useful.
2005-08-19 11:24
I've had a "recommended patches" download going via mozilla on esmft1
for a while now. I have a notify-when-up on it. It's going to /var/tmp
for now at least.
Related software appears to be at:
http://www.sun.com/download/index.jsp?cat=Systems%20Administration&tab=3&subcat=Storage%20Management
I finally found it much more quickly, by giving up on the sun search
engine, and instead using google groups. Then within about 5 or 10
minutes, I found this:
http://www.sun.com/storage/sanhttps://sdlcweb4b.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet/DownloadPage:~:com.sun.sunit.sdlc.content.DownloadPageInfo;jsessionid=F3E5C27BCDDC688E25FE7435B338B724;jsessionid=F3E5C27BCDDC688E25FE7435B338B724
...and verified that the SFS stuff is something that Francisco had
already obtained for me. :( Too many cooks for too little communication.
2005-08-19 12:20PM
Found pkgadd'd all the SFS stuff, left voicemail for Steve Scharf
indicating I'd found it using google, and indicating that the serial
stuff is still troublesome, and also that I'd still like to know if it's
OK to reboot the 3511 stuff or somehow enable a break sequence
Now I'm extracting the sun recommended patches.
My rsync backup is still going - it clearly won't be the last

v440 is coming up off the cdrom for an install
RAID controllers are showing useful output, but ignoring my inputs
completely. I've commented out the ttyC17 (esmf3511a) entry on
conserver.cf (?) and restarted conserver. Next I'll restart minicom on
ttyC17 and reboot the RAID controllers again.
2005-08-19 2:40PM
The serial problem is apparently due to:
LG:0 NOTICE: CHL:2 ID:0 Starting Media Scan
...which seems to be uninterruptible, and takes forever. Discovered by
running minicom on ttyC17 during a reboot of the RAID controllers.
The reinstall of the v440 is underway.
2005-08-19 3:05PM
The reinstall without choppy partitions is underway on the v440
2005-08-19 3:21PM
Just left a voicemail for Steve Scharf about the serial issue - which
I believe is probably due to this "media scan" thing (cut and pasted
below). Also, the Solaris 9 reinstall is adding packages now, with a
percent meter.

The current "Sun recommended patches" may not be what's required.
It may turn out that we'll have to look at the release notes for the
versions of patches listed there. :(
2005-08-20 2:24PM
copied back over all the QFS and 3511 related stuff (included current sun
recommended patches), ran installit, affirmed installation of patch pro,
but patch pro blew up without a proxy, so no patch pro to see if our
patches are suitable. When installit completed, it indicated a reboot.
2005-08-20 2:28PM
Also had to pkadd these:
SUNWsccli/ SUNWscsa/ SUNWscsd/ SUNWscsu/ SUNWscui/
...and now sccli does something a lot more interesting :)
Interesting commands:
/opt/SUNWsscs/sbin/sccli (a para-CLI)
/opt/SUNWsscs/sscsconsole/ssconsole (gives a GUI, demands a password)
An excellent URL about software configuration, stepwise, of a 3510 array:

I can't delete the logical disks yet, probably because they are mapped

sccli show disks says we have 44 drives
Since we have 44 drives, and dynsys was advising 10 disks per RAID 5
(wow), I suppose that means we'll have 4 global spares - and we'll
probably have to monitor this somewhat closely.

I'm winding up using the serial interface, but Bob's sccli document
is still providing a good general idea of what steps are required,
because the terminology appears consistent across interfaces into the
RAID controllers. I've deleted the LUN maps, and I've deleted the
logical drives.
I'm now creating a RAID 5, with a 256M stripe size from 10 disks,
including "one parity drive". It should be about 381G in size. Wait,
that's not right. The disks are each 381 gig :)

2005-08-20 3:59PM
Problem? These 10 disk RAID 5's are adding up to 3.27 terabytes, but
the maximum LUN size is supposed to be 2 terabytes. Does that mean
we'll need more parity disks than proposed? Can we chop our RAID 5's
into multiple LUN's or multiple slices (probably not multiple slices)?
really 1.6T LUN limit on Solaris 9 - and that's only with a kernel patch.

2005-08-21 11:25AM
Discovered from home earlier, that the serial connection to the RAID
controllers was broken again. Drove to work, rebooted a bit, flipped
things around a bit, eventually found that if I pulled the serial cable
out of port 17 on the cyclades hardware and put it instead into port 21,
all was well again.
I also just tried all three terminal emulations on the RAID controllers,
and found that vt100 works best. There's also a color mode, but the
box characters looked wrong.
2005-08-21 11:42AM
Tried xterm, mrxvt, rxvt, konsole, gnome-terminal, with each of the
three terminal emulations available. Then I tried an mrxvt with a few
different "ansi" or "microsoft" fonts, but these didn't work out either.
Then I tried pterm with what its default font is, and it seems to be
working pretty well in ansi color mode.
2005-08-21 12:05PM
Renamed esmf3511a to broken, and mode port 21 esmf3511a - on
conserver.nac. There's a comment -suggesting- breakage as well
2005-08-21 12:09PM
Just discovered that the drive numbers are neither consecutive, nor
100% drives.
Specifically:
0-11 are 381G drives
12 is StorEdge
13-15 are empty
16-27 are 381G drives?
28 is another StorEdge
29-31 are empty
34-43 are 381G drives

Apparently, since some sort of reset or other I did, the RAID controllers'
device names on the V440 are now /dev/es/ses0 (primary) and /dev/es/ses1
(secondary)
We actually have 36 drives, in 3 blocks of 12. The numbers are not
consecutive. It's 0-11, 16-27, 32-43. Planning to make 0,1, 16,17,
32,33 global spares, and 2-12, 18-27 and 34-43 each 10 disk RAID-5's.
But this changed later!

Someone on comp.unix.solaris suggests that using > 2T LUN's isn't
going to work, and suggests partitioning the RAID 5's (on the 3511?).
But when I try to do that, I'm getting:

Since the partitioning isn't working out, I'm going to just go ahead
and try the huge LUN's:

Reconfigure this LUN so that it is < 2TB.

Steve Scharf e-mailed a bit ago:
Hey, Dan. A few suggestions:
1. Get a direct serial connection to the array, use the supplied serial
cable. Working with the SE 3511 UI is very easy and straightforward. Do
this if your serial connections continue to be a problem.
2. Make sure the array firmware is 4.11 or newer. This gives the
quick initialization, and numerous other features and bug fixes. Very
important. It should already be up-to-date, if not the patch is 113724.
3. Don't use Logical Volumes or NRAID. Keep with Logical Disks, then
partition and present. The space calculations were done with 5+1 RAID 5
in all of the expansion trays, with one hot spare in the controller tray.
4. Multi Terabyte support with Solaris 9 is from 08/03 and newer. The
QFS filesystem then provides virtually unlimited filesystem support.
5. Enable MPXIO Fibre Channel mutltitasking:
Add to /kernel/drv/scsi_vhci.conf:
device-type-scsi-optionslist
= \
"SUN StorEdge 3511",\
"symmetric-option";
symmetric-option =
0x1000000;
EIS-CD: .../
sun/tools/storage/SE3x10/3511 in file
6. If there are any issues with the LUNs you have built, delete them
and recreate. You can do this with the UI, check to make sure that the
default is to do the quick initialization - it should take just a few
minutes to initialize - not the hours that it was taking before!
7. Make sure that you understand how the Primary and Secondary channels
are set up, and how they interract. This will determine how your LUNs
are presented to the host.
I hope that helps!

I have two notify-when-up's on the init's. One is the usual, and one
will page me when the initializations are done. Let's hope it doesn't
take 18 hours again, since I didn't get any responses about how to turn
on quick init.
Good doc:

I finally got into the 3511 by ethernet, and shortly afterward was able
to reenable the serial port. It turned out the machine didn't like the
long password I had set previously, but I shortened it up, and it let
me right in. :-S
2005-08-22 1:47PM
I found a way to get the init progress out of the serial interface (the
network interface is slower, believe it or not, even though I dropped the
BPS on the serial interface to 9600 - it seems that the network interface
is very high latency or something). They're all 5 just over 25% done.
2005-08-22 1:58PM
Just left another voicemail for Steve Scharf, reading him my list of
questions from my latest e-mail basically.
I also just found that if I change something on the 3511 RAID controller
via the network, I also see it on the serial port, and vice-versa.
2005-08-22 2:33PM
Turns out it's "online initialization mode" that completes fast - almost
immediately. It's easy to find serially or via the network, but I don't
know where it'd be via sccli
Set stripe size to 256K, from 128K default.
Told it to use the redundant RAID controller on each creation - not yet
sure if this is sufficient for failover.

A "SID" pertains to the secondary controller.
A "PID" pertains to the primary controller.
