For the sample run, the changes made during the SPM recovery and the recommended actions from lsmanalyzer are
summarized in Table 16.

recommended action
None Volume8 is imported
to SPM.
SPM8 catalog-based
SPE is created.
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC8 using the catalog-
based SPE is created.
SPM is not aware of
the volume.
Volume8 is imported to
SPM after SPM
Internal-Recovery is
complete, based on
signature (previously
imported by this SPM
instance).
Delete Volume8 from
SPM.
Note:
After recovery, the
volume is no longer
managed by SPM.
Volume4 is imported
to SPM.
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC4 is created with
carved SPE using
Volume4.
The volume is
presented on the
array. The SPM
catalog thinks the
volume is available.
The volume is put into
quarantine.
Delete Volume4 from
SPM.
Note:
After recovery,
Volume4 is no longer
managed by SPM.
Volume5 is imported
to SPM.
Catalog-based SPE
SPM5 is created.
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC5 is created.
The volume is
presented on the
array.
The SPM service for
the volume is
conforming.
The volume is put into
quarantine.
None
Volume3 is imported
to SPM.
Catalog-based SPE
SPM3 is created.
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC3 is created.
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC3 is deleted.
SPE SPM3 is available.
The volume is
presented on the
array.
The SPM service for
the volume is
conforming.
The volume is put into
quarantine.
None
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC2 is created with
auto-provisioned
volume SPM_Created_
Disk 1360668546842
Infrastructure
orchestration service
TC2 is deleted.
The volume is
removed from the
array.
For SPM_
Created_
Disk*, the SPM
volume presentation
state no longer
matches the actual
presentation state
because the volume
no longer exists on
the array.
SPM_
Created_
Disk* is marked
“offline." The SPM
service for the volume
is marked
nonconformant.
Remove the volume
from SPE.
During the second phase of the
Logical servers and associated SAN-based storage
section, the logical server refresh
operation is executed. This operation analyzes and, if necessary, repairs the logical server and storage pool entry definitions
in the restored Matrix Operating Environment database to ensure consistency with the underlying Systems Insight Manager,
VMM, VCEM, and SPM definitions.
Note:
The logical server refresh operation can be invoked manually by selecting
ToolsMatrix OE visualization
in Systems Insight
Manager. On the
Visualization
tab, select
ToolsLogical ServersRefresh
.
