Issue

  • One or more nodes report a stackmon.stack.id.conflict error in the event logs:
[Node-A: stackmon_thread: stackmon.stack.id.conflict:error]: Stack ID of the Shelf 30 (S/N SHFXXXXXXXXXX89) on channel Node101swb:8 cannot be agreed on by all the nodes in the cluster.
[Node-A: stackmon_thread: stackmon.stack.id.conflict:error]: Stack ID of the Shelf 70 (S/N SHFXXXXXXXXXX79) on channel Node100swa:8 cannot be agreed on by all the nodes in the cluster.  
  • The stack IDs for shelves in different stacks report the same stack ID:

Cluster1::> storage shelf show -fields shelf, shelf-id, stack-id
node    shelf stack-id shelf-id
-------- ----- -------- --------
C1_N1     3.50  3        50     <<< Shelf in correct stack
C1_N1     3.51  3        51     <<< Shelf in correct stack
C1_N1     3.60  3        60     <<< Shelf in incorrect stack
C1_N1     3.61  3        61     <<< Shelf in incorrect stack
C1_N1     3.70  3        70     <<< Shelf in incorrect stack
C1_N1     3.71  3        71     <<< Shelf in incorrect stack

  • The disk population errors may be reported in the event logs due to the incorrect stack IDs:
[Node-01: dsa_disc: ses.config.shelfPopError:error]: Disk shelf population on channel FC_switch_1:10 is 16. Reduce the number of disk shelves on this channel to 10 or fewer.
  • The number of disk shelves does not exceed 10 per stack.
