Sun ZFS Storage Appliance Recovery - Practice 1

Lab Scenario
BARNABAS paycheck services was running the weekly payroll report when all of sudden the
7410 ZFS appliance that stores all of their payroll data lost one of its clustered NAS heads.
Since the 7410 was in a clustered configuration it will continue to run with the single NAS head
handling all traffic, but at a performance cost. BARNABAS must deliver the payroll report on
time to their customer or they will lose their contract.

You have been dispatched to restore the 7410 NAS head and return it to a online clustered
state, BARNABAS paycheck services is depending on your technical knowledge and skill.
Good Luck!

Make sure you have the FISHsitck that matches the system type.
Never do this procedure without an L2 TSC action plan. Remember this is a last resort
operation.

Procedure Summary
1. UNCONFIG the Cluster

2. FISHSTICK the 7410 NAS head

3. Restart Machine from ILOM

4. Go Into BIOS and Change Boot Order

5. Booting from FISHSTICK

6. Go Into BIOS and Revert Boot Order

7. Set Up Basic Network Configuration to Use BUI.

8. Updating the System with the latest version of the Software

9. Updating the Software from the BUI

Un-configure the Cluster
1. Log on to the active 7410 NAS head using a pc with a compatible web browser. Use the IP
address of the NAS head and long on:
 Example: https://10.7.6.81:215
 User = root
 Password = changeme

a. Go to Configuration then click on Cluster, at the Cluster screen click the UNCONFIG
button.

b. The following splash screen appears, read the message, then click OK. By performing
the UNCONFIG, this action will keep the NAS from trying to form a cluster once the
defective NAS head has been restored. The two NAS heads are re-clustered later in the
lab. Ask your instructor if you have any question about the UNCONFIG.

c. After the UNCONFIG, notice the state of the pools and the SETUP button is active.

FISHSTICK the 7410 NAS head
What is FISHSTICK? FISHSTICKs are bootable USBs for reinstalling SS7000 series
software. Going through this process WILL DESTROY customer configurations unless you have
back up or the node you are trying to recover is one of the nodes in cluster.

2. Ask the instructor the FISHSTICK USB stick. (For this lab the FISHSTICK USB image has
been created ahead of time) Make sure you have the FISHSTICK that matches the system
type. Never do this procedure without an L2 TSC action plan. Place the USB stick in one of
USB ports on the front of the defective 7410 NAS head

Note: Remember this is a last resort operation.

Obtaining the Latest Version of the Appliance Kit - Practice 3
The FISHSTICK does not always have the latest version of the Appliance Kit Software or the
version that your customer’s might be using. It is very important that you get customer back to
the current version of the Appliance Kit or to the version they are running.
For this lab, you will assume that the action plan states to bring the customer up to the latest
version of the appliance kit software.

Go to https://wikis.oracle.com/display/FishWorks/Fishworks, and then click on Software


Updates. Note you will need VPN access for this URL. Remember to review the release notes.
Download the latest version to your laptop. You need it later in the lab 1b step eight. Once the
file downloaded you will need to unzip it.

own. However do to time constraints; the FISHSTICK will be made in advance for the
appropriate appliance.The Following are the FISHSTICKS for the lab equipment:

Code Available Number of


Model
Name Versions FISHSTICKS

7210 Fugu 2010.Q3.4.0 2

7410 Toro 2010.Q3.4.0 2

LAB Notes:
This Lab will have in bold letters that states the FISHSTICK procedure is on to be done if and
only if a L2 TSE documents it in an action plan and this procedure is a last resort.

Students will use one of the four premade USB FISHSTICKS to perform the FISHSTICK
operation on the lab equipment.
Below are the procedures to that are documents for creating a FISHSTICK.

FISHSTICK Creation Procedure


To create a FISHSTICK takes about 30 minutes, This is a reading only lab to give them
procedure on how to create a FISHSTICK in the field. Below is the FISHSTICK creation
documentation.

What is FISHSTICK?
FISHSTICKs are bootable USBs for reinstalling SS7000 series software. Going through this
process WILL DESTROY customer configurations unless you have back up or the node you are
trying to recover is one of the nodes in cluster.

Requirements:
Putty or other terminal emulator for laptop
1x 1Gb or more USB memory stick
1x x86 Solaris system running Solaris 10 or later
mkusb tool
Appropriate ISO image:
2010.Q3.4.0-XXX.iso where XXX codename translates to product name:

Product Name Code Name


7110 iwashi
7210 fugu
7310 maguro
7410 toro
7420 otoro
7120 iwashi_plus
7320 maguro_plus

Procedure
1. FISHSTICK images can be found here: 
/net/nfssys.uk/export/install/unbundled/storage/amber-
road/FISHSTICKs
2. Get mkusb(info) tool and appropriate image for your product from the table above.
3. from here on the cores systems - /net/nfssys.uk/export/install/unbundled/storage/amber-
road/FISHSTICKs/mkusb
4. Insert the USB stick into the Solaris box
- if you are running this on Solaris 10, you must do the following:
# svcs -a | grep volfs
online 19:17:54 svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default
# svcadm disable volfs
# svcs -a | grep volfs
disabled 19:18:23 svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default
5. On Solaris 10 or opensolaris, you must also make sure the USB drive is unmounted.
On newer versions of Solaris (ie try this and if it fails on Solaris 10 then don't worry), run
"eject -l" as the stick is most likely now mounted and needs to be unmounted, eg:
# eject -l
/dev/dsk/c10t0d0s0 rmdisk1,/media/DataTraveler 2.0
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0s2 cdrom1,cd1,sr1
/dev/dsk/c7t0d0s2 cdrom,cdrom0,cd,cd0,sr,sr0
# eject rmdisk1
rmdisk1 /dev/dsk/c10t0d0s0 unmounted

6. Run 'rmformat -l' to find out the correct device path to the USB stick
# rmformat -l
Looking for devices...
1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c10t0d0p0
Physical Node:
/pci@0,0/pci1022,7460@6/pci1022,7464@0,1/hub@3/storage@2/disk@0,0
Connected Device: Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 1.00
Device Type: Removable
Bus: USB
Size: 3.8 GB
Label: <None>
Access permissions: Medium is not write protected.
...

7. Run 'rmformat -l' to find out the correct device path to the usb stick
8. Run 'mkusb file.iso /dev/rdsk/<usb>p0'
* You might need to run the mkusb with the full path specified.
* Replace file.iso with the iso image file corresponding to the product you are going to install.
It might take about 30 minutes to complete.
9. Re-enable volfs on Solaris 10 if you disabled it:
# svcs -a | grep volfs disabled 19:16:12
svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default
# svcadm enable volfs
# svcs -a | grep volfs online 19:17:54
svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default
10. Know you ready to insert the stick into the 7xx0 system.
