Storage spaces , stale metadata

$

Hi!

First of all, unfortuneatly I wasn't able to attach screenshots, so I'll try to describe the problem in text.

I ran in to a storage spaces problem on a Windows server 2012 where the pool is degraded. Disk 9 seems to have been evicted to the primordial pool.

Running the Get-PhysicalDisk shows a Stale Metadata operational status.

PhysicalDisk9       False               Stale Metadata      Warning             Auto-Select

However, I've got no alerts from our SCOM monitoring regarding this.  Also when looking in the raid tools supplied by the JBOD manufacturer everything seems to be fine, so I got no alerts from that one either. In the manufacturers software the disk is reported as Status: available with 0 SMART errors.

So the question is: What is the stale metadata error? Is this disk actually broken? (doesnt seem like that according to the vendors utilitys). Should this disk be replaced or is it some kind of software errror that can be repaired?

Advice needed.

BR

Peter
