You may need to put the node where it is physically attached into maintenance mode and do it from there.

You might also have luck using the nodeshell commands.

I recovered this for a customer one, I forgot which method I had to use.

Hi,

I've been configuring aggregates on 6 nodes cluster today and managed to assign a disk to a node that the disk is not "cabled" to, ie it sits in a disk shelf that is managed by a different HA-pair:

na201::> disk show -container-type unknown              

                     Usable           Disk    Container   Container   

Disk                   Size Shelf Bay Type    Type        Name      Owner

---------------- ---------- ----- --- ------- ----------- --------- --------

6.45.16                   -    45  16 SAS     unknown     -         na201node-3a

The disk is "cabled" to na201node-1a, so I'm trying to change the ownership:

na201::> storage disk assign -disk 6.45.16 -owner na201node-1a -force

Error: command failed: Failed to assign disks. Reason: Disk 6.45.16 does not exist.

OK, this time trying to remove the ownership:

na201::> storage disk removeowner -disk 6.45.16 -force 

Warning: Disks may be automatically assigned to the node because the disk's auto-assign option is enabled. If the affected volumes are not offline, the disks may be

         auto-assigned during the remove owner operation, which will cause unexpected results. To verify that the volumes are offline, abort this command and use "volume

         show".

Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y

Error: command failed: Disk 6.45.16 is not connected to na201node-3a

I'm out of ideas at this point .. any hints?

Cheers,
