volreattach(8)
NAME
  volreattach - Reattaches disk drives that have once again become accessible

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/sbin/volreattach [-rb] [accessname...]

  /usr/sbin/volreattach -c  accessname

OPTIONS
  The volreattach utility has the following options:

  -r  Calls the volrecover utility to attempt to recover stale plexes of any
      volumes on the failed disk.

  -b  Performs the reattach operation in the background.

  -c  Checks whether a reattach is possible. No operation is performed, but
      the name of the disk group and disk media name at which the disk can be
      reattached is displayed.

DESCRIPTION
  The volreattach utility attempts to reattach disks using the same disk
  group and media names they had before detachment.

  This operation may be necessary if a disk has a transient failure, or if
  some disk drivers are unloaded or unloadable when the Logical Storage
  Manager is started, causing disks to enter the failed state.

  If the problem is fixed, the volreattach command can be used to reattach
  the disks without plexes being flagged as stale, as long as the reattach
  happens before any volumes on the disk are started.

  The volreattach command is called from the voldiskadm menus as part of disk
  recovery.

  The volreattach utility tries to find a disk with a disk group and disk ID
  matching that of the disk(s) being reattached. If the matching disk is
  found, the reattach operation may still fail if the original cause (or some
  other cause) for the disk failure still exists.

EXIT CODES
  A zero exit status is returned if it is possible to perform a reattach.
  Otherwise, non-zero is returned.
