Symptoms
Adding a disk to a Delphix engine will generate an internal error, similar to the one below, if the disk has a corrupt EFI label.
STORAGE_DEVICE_CONFIGURE job for "Disk2:3" failed due to an internal error during execution.
This indicates that the beginning of the disk has been overwritten with data that does not form a valid EFI label. This can happen after running a storage test on a disk.
Resolution
A newly created disk can be added in place of the one with the invalid label. A new disk will have no label rather than a corrupt label, allowing the Delphix engine to write a label as the disk is added.
Alternatively, contact Delphix Support for assistance with replacing the corrupt label.
