People,

My apologies in the delay for this summary. The server is now stable.

A few questions were raised about LSM, even though we have a rootdg, the O/S
root is not involved with this.

There seems to be some issues with LSM, and I believe there is a case logged
with this. The work around, and this is NOT PRETTY:

In non-cluster:
VOLDG DEPORT - export the old file system

Boot Cluster in single user, bcheckrc ignore lsm errors, get all the errors
about on-line aliased,...

edit /sbin/lsm-startup
change:
newton {root}>grep -i "\-k" lsm-startup
#vold_opts=-k
vold_opts="-k -x noloadbalance -x noautoconfig"

Now we need to tell it is a version 4, so we need to create a volboot file:

VOLDCTL ADD DISK DSK..e This is the disk with your LSM database region
(private?)

RE-BOOT into full cluster

VOLDCTL ADD DISK DSK... This is to tell LSM about the disks in the other
datadg.

VOLDG -o CONVERT_OLD -o SHARED IMPORT DATADG

Check your fsets, re-boot, and the cluster is now happy.

This is as elegant as a Mack truck in a fine china shop, but it does appear
to work.

Regards,

Guy




Subject: TC5.1 Cluster creation items with LSM...


People,

We are having a strange one here. After the clu-create and re-boot the
rootdg has appeared but our datadg has gone. Is something obvious missing
here?

This is T64-V5.1 PK3.

DATADG missing:
