During yesterday's business hours, a cache drive failed on one of the vSAN OSA nodes. The administrator reached out to the manufacturer and received a replacement drive the following day. When the drive failed, vSAN started a resync to ensure the health of the data, and all objects are showing a healthy and compliant state. The vSAN administrator needs to replace the failed cache drive.
Which set of steps should the vSAN administrator take?
When a cache drive in a vSAN environment fails, the affected disk group fails as well. To replace the failed cache device, the correct procedure involves removing the existing vSAN disk group entirely since its components are no longer valid. Then, the administrator should physically replace the failed device. After verifying that the ESXi host detects the new device, the administrator will need to manually recreate the disk group. This ensures that the new cache drive is properly configured and integrated into the vSAN cluster.
vSAN cache disk failure need to recreate whole disk group
When the cache disk fails, it causes the capacity tier to also fail. As a result, the entire disk group is failed. To remediate, install a new cache disk and build a new disk group.
if a failure of a capacity disk is detected, vsan automatically rebuild the impacted components. To replace the faulty capacity device, select the host, click on the failed capacity disk, remove the disk and replace with a new one.
