Applicable Products
- Operating system: QuTS hero h5.3.1 or later
- Apps: Storage Manager, High Availability Manager
- JBOD enclosures: TR-series (TR-002, TR-004)
Scenario
When using USB JBOD enclosures such as TR-002 or TR-004 in a QuTS hero high-availability (HA) cluster, you may encounter an issue where disks on the JBOD enclosures are not listed during storage pool creation. This can happen if you created RAID groups on the JBOD enclosures after the HA cluster had already been created.
Root Cause
After creating the HA cluster, any RAID groups you create on TR-series JBOD enclosures will not be synchronized from the active node to the passive node. As a result, the passive node lacks the corresponding virtual disk configuration, causing the system to fail to list the JBOD disks during pool creation.
Solution
To ensure disks on your TR-series JBOD enclosures are usable in an HA cluster, you must create RAID groups on the JBOD enclosures before creating the HA cluster.
- If you have already created the HA cluster, remove the cluster.
For details, see Removing an HA cluster. - Connect identical TR-series JBOD enclosures to both nodes.
- Ensure the JBOD enclosures are in Software Control mode.
Note
Software Control mode is the default factory setting.
If you had set your JBOD enclosures to another mode, check your hardware user guide for instructions on setting them back to Software Control mode. You can find the hardware user guide for your model in
Download Center.
- Use External Storage Device Management to create identical RAID groups on the JBOD enclosures connected to both nodes.
The RAID groups on both nodes must use the same RAID type, contain the same number of disks, and use disks of matching capacities.
Note
You can access External Storage Device Management by going to Storage Manager > External Storage.
- Create the HA cluster using High Availability Manager.
For details, see Creating an HA cluster. - After the HA cluster is created, create the storage pool using Storage Manager.
For details, see Creating a storage pool.
The Create Storage Pool wizard should now detect the disks on both JBOD enclosures.

场景
在使用 TR-002 或 TR-004 等 USB JBOD 机箱进行 QuTS hero 高可用性 (HA) 群集时,可能会遇到在存储池创建期间 JBOD 机箱上的磁盘未列出的问题。如果在已创建 HA 群集后在 JBOD 机箱上创建了 RAID 组,则可能发生此问题。
根本原因
在创建 HA 群集后,您在 TR 系列 JBOD 机箱上创建的任何 RAID 组都不会从活动节点同步到被动节点。因此,被动节点缺少相应的虚拟磁盘配置,导致系统在池创建期间无法列出 JBOD 磁盘。
解决方案
为了确保 TR 系列 JBOD 机箱上的磁盘在 HA 群集中可用,必须在创建 HA 群集之前在 JBOD 机箱上创建 RAID 组。
- 如果您已经创建了 HA 群集,请移除群集。
详细信息请参见移除 HA 集群。 - 将相同的 TR 系列 JBOD 机箱连接到两个节点。
- 确保 JBOD 机箱处于软件控制模式。
注意
软件控制模式是出厂默认设置。
如果您已将 JBOD 机箱设置为其他模式,请查阅硬件用户指南以了解如何将其重新设置为软件控制模式。您可以在
下载中心找到您的型号的硬件用户指南。
- 使用外部存储设备管理在连接到两个节点的 JBOD 机箱上创建相同的 RAID 组。
两个节点上的 RAID 组必须使用相同的 RAID 类型,包含相同数量的磁盘,并使用容量匹配的磁盘。
注意
您可以通过进入存储管理器 > 外部存储来访问外部存储设备管理。
- 使用 High Availability Manager 创建 HA 群集。
详情请参见创建 HA 集群。 - 创建 HA 群集后,使用存储管理器创建存储池。
详情请参见创建存储池。
创建存储池向导现在应检测到两个 JBOD 机箱上的磁盘。
