How to Initialize a Storage Scrub Using the CLI

After a storage error has been detected on a Delphix Engine, it may be necessary to start a scrub of the storage to try to detect any permanent corruption. If, as part of a support case, a Delphix Support Engineer asks you to start a scrub, you can do so from the CLI.

When the scrub completes, you may need to set up a call with a Delphix Engineer to clear any historical errors, if no new corruption has been detected.

ssh sysadmin@engine-hostname

engine-hostname> storage
engine-hostname storage> scrub
engine-hostname storage scrub> start
engine-hostname storage scrub start *> commit
