Diagnostics and <strong>Troubleshooting</strong> <strong>Reference</strong> <strong>Manual</strong> – Virtual SAN<br />
Here are some other RVC commands that can help to remediate storage related<br />
issues on Virtual SAN.<br />
vsan.object_status_report<br />
This command verifies the health of the Virtual SAN cluster. When all objects are in<br />
a known good state, it is expected that this command return no issues. With absent<br />
components however, this command provides details on the missing components.<br />
The way to read the output below is that there are 96 objects in this Virtual SAN<br />
cluster that only have 3 out of 3 components currently in a healthy state. The second<br />
line can be read as the Virtual SAN cluster having 19 object where only 1 of its 3<br />
components are currently healthy. Therefore they are listed as orphans.<br />

If Virtual SAN doesn’t start to remediate automatically, i.e. doesn’t start to rebuild<br />
the missing components, there are a couple of possible causes. First, ensure that if<br />
the components are declared ABSENT, that 60 minutes have passed. Virtual SAN will<br />
only begin remediating ABSENT components after 60 minutes by default.<br />
Another likely issue is that there is a resource issue. If Virtual SAN does not have<br />
enough resources to auto-remediate, consider adding additional resources to the<br />
cluster, or resolving the initial problem. Once the new resources become available,<br />
Virtual SAN will remediate automatically.<br />
