Exadata database server Drive Configuration Verification

Fahd Mirza
To verify the database server physical drive configuration, use the following command:

/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 PDList -aALL | grep "Firmware state"

The output should be similar to for the disks:

Firmware state: Online, Spun Up


To verify the database server virtual drive configuration, use the following command:

/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 CfgDsply -aALL | grep "Virtual Drive:";/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 CfgDsply -aALL | grep "Number Of Drives";/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 CfgDsply -aALL | grep "^State"

The output should be similar to:

Virtual Drive: 0 (Target Id: 0)
Number Of Drives    :
State               : Optimal
