FC60 and VxVM

[Huber_4]

Hi all,

I have 6 LUNS managed by a FC60. I have advanced VxVM installed on my platform. But vea does not see these LUNs whereas ioscan and amdsp see them. And actually I don't see my LUNs in /dev/vx/rdmp/. And when I try to run a "vxdisksetup -i cxtydz" (where cxtydz is the device of a LUN), I obtain the following error:
vxvm:vxdisk: ERROR: Device c4t0d0: Not in the configuration


What is wrong ? How can I say to CVM that there are LUNs on my plateform ?

Thanks in advance for all your answers.

Looks like problem is not in the FC60 but in VxVM setup

Huber,

Please have a look at this link that I posted previously. Due to this, I would contact HP and/or Veritas and see if a patch is available.

I checked the Veritas website, and apparently you need v3.5 to support FC60.

Please see http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/VolumeManager_UNIX/250786.pdf
and
http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/VolumeManager_UNIX/250789.pdf

for more details.

Please note that VxVM v3.5 supports ONLY HP-UX 11i.

Yes, I also had a look at thes docs and I have v3.5! I do not find any solution. I'm trying the strong way : creation of the LUNs then reinstallation of HPUX (I also have HPUX11i...). Because previously I installed HPUX then rearranged LUNs (unbind, rebind,etc)

Thanks for you answers.

Huber,

Did you run "vxdctl enable" before trying vxdisksetup?

Yes, I tried that, thank you. I have no idea anymore. I opened a case at Veritas. But if you have other ideas, you're welcome !

Hi,

have i understand you correct?
Are your FC60-luns not available in ioscan nor the FC60 by ampdsp?

Can you attach your ioscan please?

regards

Hi,

looks very well.
May it be that you have to do the vxdisksetup with the full devicefile of you disk (just like pvcreate).
I mean: "vxdisksetup -i /dev/dsk/cxtydz".
