Plex condition flags

vxprint may also display one of the following plex condition flags in the STATE field:

IOFAIL 

The plex was detached as a result of an I/O failure detected during normal volume I/O. The plex is out-of-date with respect to the volume, and in need of complete recovery. However, this condition also indicates a likelihood that one of the disks in the system should be replaced. 

NODAREC 

No physical disk was found for one of the subdisks in the plex. This implies either that the physical disk failed, making it unrecognizable, or that the physical disk is no longer attached through a known access path. The plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is dissociated. 

NODEVICE 

A physical device could not be found corresponding to the disk ID in the disk media record for one of the subdisks associated with the plex. The plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is dissociated. 

RECOVER 

A disk corresponding to one of the disk media records was replaced, or was reattached too late to prevent the plex from becoming out-of-date with respect to the volume. The plex required complete recovery from another plex in the volume to synchronize its contents. 

REMOVED 

Set in the disk media record when one of the subdisks associated with the plex is removed. The plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is dissociated.
