Solution 2365691.1 : Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance: How to resolve a Meta Read SSD being seen as a Data Drive when being added to a Pool

Applies to:

Oracle ZFS Storage ZS4-4 - Version All Versions to All Versions [Release All Releases]
Oracle ZFS Storage ZS5-2 - Version All Versions to All Versions [Release All Releases]
Oracle ZFS Storage ZS5-4 - Version All Versions to All Versions [Release All Releases]
7000 Appliance OS (Fishworks)

Symptoms

Under the BUI, you cannot see a Meta device but can only see the device as a Data Drive.

Changes

Added Meta SSD.

Cause

Incorrect part installed.

Solution

The SSD part number fitted is only qualified for the FS1 disk array and not the DE3-24 JBOD storage.

Please check that you have not fitted a HBTAC2DH2SUN3.2T = 7350500 [C]

There are two types of ZFS DE3 part number and you want 7337005 [C], which is HBCAC2DH2SUN3.2T

The device part number is used to determine whether the device is a Data drive or a Meta device.
