Fixing Solaris Cluster device ID (DID) mismatches

Fixing Sun Cluster device ID (DID) mismatches

I had to replace a disk in one of my cluster nodes, and was greeted with the following message once the disk was swapped and I checked the devices for consistency:
$ cldevice check
cldevice:  (C894318) Device ID "snode2:/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0" does not match physical device ID for "d5".
Warning: Device "snode2:/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0" might have been replaced.


To fix this issue, I used the cldevice utilities repair option:
$ cldevice repair
Updating shared devices on node 1
Updating shared devices on node 2


Once the repair operation updated the devids, cldevice ran cleanly:
$ cldevice check
