Hi, Everyone.
Hope you could help me with this issue. Here are the scenario that I have
Scenario: This is newly built vdp server, it doesn't have so much in it. Right now when I go to vsphere data protection->configuration, the status is stuck on Admin. I have tried performing dpnctl stop gsan & start gsan. It automatically switch back to degraded after few seconds. I have manually perform integrity check but the same issue arise. I have posted below the disk usage on our VDP for reference.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 32G 6.0G 24G 20% /
udev 1.9G 148K 1.9G 1% /dev
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 128M 37M 85M 31% /boot
/dev/sda7 1.5G 184M 1.2G 14% /var
/dev/sda9 138G 4.9G 126G 4% /space
/dev/sdb1 512G 52G 461G 11% /data01
/dev/sdc1 512G 51G 461G 10% /data02
/dev/sdd1 256G 51G 206G 20% /data03
If more information is needed, please let me know and I'll provide those information.
Simple. It is degraded because the expansion from 512GB to 1 TB has not completed successfully.
if you see /dev/sdd1 is still 256GB

SavkoorSuhas that fixes the gsan degraded issue, although I have one question on your procedure. Don't I need to place back the drive from dependent to Independent persistent?
Yes we need to put it back to independent persistent. Gotta update that article.
