STATUS_DISK_RESET_FAILED
The storage stack could not reset the disk successfully
This status belongs to the lower storage, disk, virtual-disk, or file-system repair path. For STATUS_DISK_RESET_FAILED, treat it as a boundary between the caller and the storage stack, not as a generic application error.
A reset is a recovery action after lower-level I/O trouble. This status means even that recovery path failed, so controller, cable, bus, firmware, virtual storage, or device health must be investigated.
For STATUS_DISK_RESET_FAILED, the most useful evidence is the failing operation, device or volume identity, storage-event log, disk health data, and whether the volume was online, read-only, virtualized, encrypted, compressed, sparse, or under repair.
What to inspect
- Look for bus reset, controller reset, and timeout events.
- Check multipath, firmware, and physical connectivity.
- Plan failover or replacement if reset failures repeat.
