TEMPRMSD Plex State
The TEMPRMSD plex state is used by vxassist when attaching new data plexes to a
volume. If the synchronization operation does not complete, the plex and its subdisks are
removed.
Plex Condition Flags
vxprint may also display one of the following condition flags in the STATE field:
IOFAIL Plex Condition
The plex was detached as a result of an I/O failure detected during normal volume I/O.
The plex is out-of-date with respect to the volume, and in need of complete recovery.
However, this condition also indicates a likelihood that one of the disks in the system
should be replaced.
NODAREC Plex Condition
No physical disk could be foundcorresponding to the disk IDin thedisk mediarecord for
one of thesubdisks associated withthe plex. Theplex cannot beused until thecondition is
fixed or the affected subdisk is dissociated.
NODEVICE Plex Condition
A physical device could not be found corresponding to the disk ID in the disk media
record for one of the subdisks associated with the plex. The plex cannot be used until this
condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is dissociated.
RECOVER Plex Condition
A disk corresponding to one of the disk media records was replaced, or was reattached
too late to prevent the plex from becoming out-of-date with respect to the volume. The
plex required complete recovery from another plex in the volume to synchronize its
contents.
REMOVED Plex Condition
Set in the disk media record when one of the subdisks associated with the plex is
removed. The plex cannot be used until this condition is fixed, or the affected subdisk is
dissociated.
