Plex Condition Flags
vxprint may also display one of the following condition flags in the
STATE field:
IOFAIL Plex Condition
The plex was detached as a result of an I/O failure detected during
normal volume I/O. The plex is out-of-date with respect to the volume,
and in need of complete recovery. However, this condition also indicates a
likelihood that one of the disks in the system should be replaced.
NODAREC Plex Condition
No physical disk could be found corresponding to the disk ID in the disk
media record for one of the subdisks associated with the plex. The plex
cannot be used until the condition is fixed or the affected subdisk is
dissociated.
NODEVICE Plex Condition
A physical device could not be found corresponding to the disk ID in the
disk media record for one of the subdisks associated with the plex. The
plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is
dissociated.
RECOVER Plex Condition
A disk corresponding to one of the disk media records was replaced, or
was reattached too late to prevent the plex from becoming out-of-date
with respect to the volume. The plex required complete recovery from
another plex in the volume to synchronize its contents.
REMOVED Plex Condition
Set in the disk media record when one of the subdisks associated with
the plex is removed. The plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed,
or the affected subdisk is dissociated.
Plex Kernel States
The plex kernel state indicates the accessibility of the plex to the volume
driver which monitors it.
