HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Version A.01.01 Release Notes, September 2008

JAGag22707: Lot's of vx* directories left over in /tmp
• What is the problem? Some empty directories can be seen in /tmp/vx* after a reboot.
• What is the workaround? These directories can be ignored.
JAGag35297: cfsmount failed since the package was already started
• What is the problem? cfsmount command could fail complaining the package was already
started.
# cfsmount /var/opt/sgtest/tmp/mnt/dev/vx/dsk/cvm_fcc_dd1/lvol5_SG
CFS-CK-4203_23 sec Executing "/usr/sbin/cmrunpkg -n sec -v
SG-CFS-DG-12390_5 SG-CFS-MP-13161_12 SG-CFS-CK-4203_23"
Cannot start SG-CFS-CK-4203_23 while it is starting cmrunpkg: Unable
to start some package or package instances
Error: Failed to mount mount point
"/var/opt/sgtest/tmp/mnt/dev/vx/dsk/cvm_fcc_dd1/lvol5_S-
-CFS-CK-4203_23" on "sec"
The cfsmount command issues a cmhaltpkg and then cmmodpkg command to ensure
that cmrunpkg starts the package successfully on the target node. However, if the package
is already down on all nodes when the cfsmount command is run, then cmhaltpkg does
not set the package state correctly. This causes the package manager to start the package
when the cmmodpkg command is run, and then cmrunpkg fails because the package is
already starting.
• What is the workaround? The workaround is to issue cfsmntadm display <mount_point>
to verify if the mount point was mounted successfully and re-issue cfsmount command if
retry is needed.
JAGag45544: Open fails for the device /dev/vxfen, after removing and reinstalling a
Serviceguard Cluster File System (SG CFS) bundle.
• What is the problem? After removing a SG CFS bundle and later re-installing the same SG
CFS bundle on the same system, the cfscluster config command fails to join the cluster
and causes the node to TOC. The following error is reported in the SG CFS pkg.log file:
/sbin/vxfen-startup (exit=1) VXFEN vxfenconfig ERROR V-11-2-1002 Open failed for device: /dev/vxfen with
error 2
This is because the /dev/vxfen and /dev/vxfend devices are not created after the bundle
is re-installed, causing the SG-CFS-pkg to fail. After the node is rebooted, /dev/vxfen and
/dev/vxfend are created as part of the reboot process.This problem impacts the following
SG CFS bundles: T2775xx, T2776xx, T2777xx, T2795xx, T2796xx, and T2797xx.
• What is the workaround? After removing and re-installing the SG CFS bundle, reboot the
system manually.
