11.23 OnlineJFS license failure

[Tim Nelson]

Thought I would share a solution.

HPUX 11.23 EOE

1 of many servers decided that the OnlineJFS license just was not good enough for it anymore. While attempting to fsadm a filesystem it errored with:

"UX:vxfs fsadm: ERROR: V-3-25255: fsadm: You don't have a license to run this program"

vxlicrep reported all in good standing

/sbin/fs/vxfs/vxenablef -a errored with kernel mismatch.

The solution....

/sbin/fs/vxfs4.1/vxenablef -a


No solution as to why OnlineJFS decided not to work anymore but the above fixed it.

Cheers !!
