VxVM error - Must be executed on Master

[N Ward]

I'm recreating a 2-node Serviceguard cluster and currently creating the VxVM diskgroups on the Primary node. I'm using vxdg -s init diskgroup to create the diskgroups and I'm getting the error "Must be executed on the Master". I'm confused by this, since the server IS the Master (Primary if thats what this means). Any ideas??

Type "vxdctl -c mode" , if output says "MASTER" then you can run commands there...

I haven't sorted out the cluster yet, so its not running on either node, there is no Master. I need to create the filesystems first, then worry about the cluster later.. I think I will get the same error on the other node. The other node is NOT the master its always the standby..

-s option is only available with vxvm cluster filesystem.

vxdg init is the command to create an active/passive dg for an active/passive cluster.
