Hi DU Managers:
I am in a customer trying to configure one alpha system with a backup
philosophy who uses AdvFS split mirror to make the Database backup
with an LSM image, while the other image stays available for users with the
SAP/ORACLE Database. This is the scenario:
Alpha 4100 5/600
3 CPU
4 GB RAM
FW 5.1
DU 4.0D
Patch Kit #2
2 KZPSA
1 SW800
2 HSZ50
4 Raidsets (RAID 5)
rz24 - s1 LSM mirror with rz32 - ms1
rz25 - s2 LSM mirror with rz33 - ms2
The goal is to split the LSM mirror msX (Plexes 2) from the sX (Plexes 1),
and then mount the mirror image to make the backup. We have implemented
this backup philosophy in a Turbo Laser Alpha 8400, DU 4.0D, Patch Kit #1
and didn't have any problems and works very good for about 6 months...
But when we try to implement in this Alpha 4100 we get this message when
we try to mount the spit mirror:
# mount -r -o dual -t advfs ......
System Message: Log over multiple mcells
Then the system reboots. Nothing in dia, uerf, messages, syslog.dated ...
We install patch kit #1, patch Kit #3, change box, mkfdmn -X, DU 4.0E,
etc, etc, etc, and always the same message, and then reboot
Does anyone knows how i can solve this problem ?
Many thanks in advance
