There are too many drives attached to the system.
Explanation
The cluster only supports a fixed number of drives.
User response
- Disconnect any excessive unmanaged enclosures from the system.
- Unmanage any offline drives that are not present in the system.
- Identify unused drives and remove them from the enclosures.
- Identify arrays of drives that are no longer required. Remove
the arrays and remove the drives from the enclosures if they are present.
- Once there are fewer than 1056 drives in the system, consider
re-engineering system capacity by migrating data from small arrays
onto large arrays, then removing the small arrays and the drives that
formed them.
- Consider the need for an additional Storwize® system in your SAN solution.
