I'm having trouble with my 1TB vdp appliance, the appliance configure status webpage is showing all services are running but when I login to the appliance and run the command dpnctl status is shows gsan as degraded.
- I can't get backups to execute manually and they didn't run to schedule overnight.
- The appliance is showing disk usage around 36% but no backups are listed in the restore tab in vSphere web client.
- A manual integrity check completed successfully yesterday
I tried stopping/starting the gsan using dpnctl stop gsan, dpnctl start gsan but it returned to degraded fairly soon afterwards
I tried changing hte backup window so its not in maintenance mode to see if that would let me execute manual vm backups but that didn't work
I've also increased the RAM on the appliance from the default 4GB to 6GB
Can anyone tell me if gsan degraded is user fixable or if not will the appliance correct it itself and if so how long (minutes, a few hours, 0.5 days, more)
