make_tape_recovery thinks vg00 under vxvm

[Khairy]

hi all,

i have a problem where make_tape_recovery thinks vg00 is under vxvm.

The OS is hpux 11.23 and i cant figure out what went wrong.

VxVM vxprint ERROR V-5-1-582 Disk group vg00: No such disk group

I appreacite if anyone could share their opinion on this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Are these errors the same symptom?

ERROR: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/2011-07-21,03:42/system_cfg", line 155: Illegal character: "M"

ERROR: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/2011-07-21,03:42/system_cfg", line 155: syntax error

hi dennis,

thank you for your reply. The errors you highlighted puzzles me. Based on my understanding, this file are autogenerated or possible system.cfg file corrupted.

I plan to swremove this version of ignite and install new ignite and see whether that fix the problem.

What do you think?

Right.  But anything obvious on line 155?

It can't hurt if you have a real old version but I'm not sure it will fix things.

hi all,

i solved this a month ago. THere is an entry in /etc/fstab which was modified while the system is up and running. My guess no ones check or verify it.

WARNING: Filesystem /oracle/PRD/mirrlogB is not mounted.  It will be ignored.

I put a comment (#) to it in the /etc/fstab and re-run make_tape_recovery. It completes like a charm.
