Environment
- VMware SRM
- Hitachi SRA
Procedure
-
For the Local Site:
On Windows where VMware® vCenterSRM™ is running, perform the following procedures.- Collect the VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file on Windows on both protection and recovery sites. Collect the following VMware® vCenterSRM™ log file including the error messages of “[RMSRA]” and “VMware® vCenter SRM™ ERROR messages” and the RAID Manager command error log.
- %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware Site Recovery Manager\Logs\vmware*.log
- Collect the outputs of the following command on HORCMINST=XX(instance# for SRA)
- set
- %HORCMROOT%\HORCM\etc\raidqry -l
- %HORCMROOT%\HORCM\etc\raidqry -g
- %HORCMROOT%\HORCM\etc\pairdisplay -IH -g ??? -CLI -l -fwe (where ??? is a group name shown by raidqry -g)
- %HORCMROOT%\HORCM\etc\raidscan -IH -p port (i.e. cl1-a-0) -CLI (port where connecting to ESX/ESXi server)
- If ShadowImage is installed,
- %HORCMROOT%\HORCM\etc\pairdisplay -g ??? -CLI -l -few -m cas (where ??? is a group name shown by raidqry -g)
- Collect the VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file on Windows on both protection and recovery sites. Collect the following VMware® vCenterSRM™ log file including the error messages of “[RMSRA]” and “VMware® vCenter SRM™ ERROR messages” and the RAID Manager command error log.
-
For the Remote Site:
On Windows where VMware® vCenter SRM™ is running, and on UNIX where RAID Manager is running, perform the following procedures.- Collect the VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file on Windows on both protection and recovery site. Collect the following VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file including the error messages of “[RMSRA]” and “SRM ERROR messages” and the RAID Manager command error log.
- %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware Site Recovery Manager\Logs\vmware*.log
- Collect the outputs of the following command on HORCMINST=XX(instance# for SRA) on remote UNIX
- env
- raidqry -l
- raidqry -g
- pairdisplay -IH -g ??? -CLI -l -fwe (where ??? is a group name shown by raidqry -g)
- raidscan -IH -p port(i.e. cl1-a-0) -CLI (port where connecting to ESX/ESXi sever)
- If ShadowImage is installed, collect the following:
- pairdisplay -g ??? -CLI -l -few -m cas (where ??? is a group name shown by raidqry -g)
- Collect the VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file on Windows on both protection and recovery site. Collect the following VMware® vCenter SRM™ log file including the error messages of “[RMSRA]” and “SRM ERROR messages” and the RAID Manager command error log.
