serviceguard - cant activate vg
Hi
I was moving our data to a new disk, but after the move I cant activate the VG.
Any advice greatly apprecaited.
Its part of a serviceguard cluster
Thanks
vgimport тАУs тАУm /tmp2/vgsgm.mapfile /dev/vgsgm /dev/dsk/vpath22 /dev/dsk/vpath11
vgimport: Quorum not present, or some physical volume(s) are missing.
vgchange -a e vgsgm
vgchange: Activation mode requested for the volume group "/dev/vgsgm" conflicts with configured mode.
root@bfssgm01 [/tmp]> vgchange -a y vgsgm
vgchange: Couldn't activate volume group "vgsgm":
Quorum not present, or some physical volume(s) are missing.

Re: serviceguard - cant activate vg
"Activation mode requested for the volume group "/dev/vgsgm" conflicts with configured mode"
--> To be able to do "vgchange -a e" you need first to do "vgchange -c y".
Anyway, you have an other problem
"Quorum not present, or some physical volume(s) are missing"
Either you try to import a mirrored VG with only one copy of data, either it is not the case and you have forgotten some disks.
In the first case, you can activate the VG with quorum option "vgchange -a e -q n" and it will work. In the other case, first resolve why you are missing disk before trying to use the VG

Re: serviceguard - cant activate vg
the system does not seem to have the appropraite command patches (and might be other enhancement patches) for LVM.
please find the keywords after choosing the OS version and keyword search LVM and get the patches from the ITRC Site Search page for patches.
http://www11.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/search.do?BC=main|&pageOsid=hpux
u shud always have the system patched for the LVM patches uptodate.
also make sure that accordingly it is always good to have system patched fpr all the other bundles as HWEnable,FEature and QPKBAse .these u can do later on also, but as u are prompted please install the LVM patches.
the other thing is that
1)after u are able to activate the VG in Quorum override mode (vgchange -a y -q n
2)vgrduce is run depending upon the correctness of the VG to remove the other PVs
this will depend if the dev files that u have mentioned at the time of Importing the VG are sufficient that u get all the LVs after importing the VG and activating iin the Quorum override mode.
regards
sujit

Re: serviceguard - cant activate vg
the other part is just after importing the VG make sure
to run the following command to first make this cluster unaware.
#vgchange -c n vgsgm
#vgchange -a y -q n vgsgm
check the warnings for the PVs not present these u need to remove later.
#vgdisplay -v vgsgm
make a note of the PVs and LVs listed and make sure that the LVs are properly imported and llok healthy and that u are not mossing the useful pVs
then u can go ahead with doing vgreduce once u think that all ur LVs are there in the VG and are intact.
#vgreduce /dev/vgsgm
these PVs are not reqd now and even without these u have all the LVs intact and healthy.
#vgextend /dev/vgsgm
etc to include the alternate path of the PVs into the VG
Regards
Sujit
