Gentlemen,
after booting our iSCSI initiator restores iSCSI connections and “powers
up” virtual
hard disks. If the disks are dynamic they need to be reactivated.
Finally I’ve managed
to do this from our control application and this is not a problem any
more. The problem is
when the disks are organized into mirror set it takes quite a lot of
time to resync them. So:
Q1: Is there any way to skip resync process? B/s we know for sure
shutdown was
correct and no volume integrity checks are needed.
Q2: Is there any way at least to determine operation completion percent.
Like disk manager
shows. Or can anybody point to application (except disk manager itself)
which does shows
such a percent? DmAdmin seems to be too huge to become a reverse
engineering source…
Q3: Sometimes (well, quite often) mirror reactivation process ends up
w/o resync. The
mirror just goes up healthy immediately. Is there some sort of time
interval between reactivating
individial disks which are the part of the mirror?
Thank you! Your help would be appreciated.
