QuestionQ106

Troubleshooting and Repairing

A single disk in a vSAN OSA disk group experiences an unrecoverable hardware failure. As a result, vSAN sets every disk in the group to the Permanent disk loss health status, indicating disk failure. However, no other disks have encountered a hardware failure.

Why does vSAN mark all disks this way?

  • A The vSAN disk management service has failed.
  • B Deduplication and compression are enabled.
  • C The affected vSAN node is offline.
  • D The key management server is offline.
Explanation

With vSAN OSA deduplication and compression enabled, data reduction and its metadata operate across the disk group. Failure of any one disk—whether cache or capacity—causes vSAN to take the whole disk group offline to preserve data integrity, so all disks in that group can be reported with permanent disk loss.
