Disk error message on Sun StorEdge 3310.

Hi guys,

Does anyone see the following error message in the /var/adm/messages? Should I have to replace this faulty disk?

A good output that would give you a hint of a problem is iostat -En

This output reports anykind of errors to a particular disk since the last reboot. If you are seeing high error numbers, then you can move onto running a file system check - fsck - on the drive.

If you have anykind of RAID setup, check to see if any issues are being reported. Depending on what you are using to manage the RAID - Veritas Volume Manager or Solaris Disk Suite - they will most certainly tell you if there is an issue. A vxprint for Veritas and a metastat for DiskSuite will show you what you have setup and if there are any recognized disk issues.
