Dynamic Root Disk A.3.13 * Release Notes (766141-001, March 2014)

Alternatively, you can remove the "passwd" and "group" entries that contain compat from the
clone's /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/etc/nsswitch.conf file and replace the
"hosts" entry with:
hosts: dns [NOTFOUND=return] nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
Cloning problems
Issue
occasional failure on fully allocated file systems
In some cases where a file system is nearly full, drd clone fails with the following frecover messages
frecover(1047): I/O error in write of file <path>
frecover(1073): frecover of <path basename>failed
In these cases, frecover appears to need some temporary work space to successfully create the
file.
Workaround
To resolve, free up some space in the nearly full source file system.
Status: Alternative copy mechanisms are being investigated. QXCR1000963803
Issue
failure cloning, sconf* line 7: syntax error
DRD can abort during a clone attempt if instances or disk devices have been renumbered, and
multiple agile device files exist for the same device. The following error can occur:
# drd clone -pt /dev/disk/disk165 -x overwrite=true

Workaround
When this issue is encountered during a clone or clone preview, and ioscan shows multiple agile
device files for the same device, remove the stale device files in /dev/disk and /dev/rdisk
using rmsf or rm if they are busy. On LVM systems, you may need to rebuild lvmtab using vgscan
-a if lvlnboot –v reports a stale device.
Issue
Dedicated dump devices not set up correctly on clone
After booting clone, dmesg can show errors if dump devices were set up using crashconf on
the original system:
