vxdisk list online dgdisabled

[Mohammad Ashfaqur Rahma]

Th the output of "vxdisk list", all the disk(total 4) of a VG showing the statud "online dgdisabled", which is supposed to be "online" only. the LUN are from XP12K and OS in HP-UX 11.23 MCOE. The disk are mounted (!).

Any one can tell me how to make them "online"

thanks in advance

Are you sure you can still reach data pn the diskgroup? What i know is if the disk group is "online dgdisabled", then you cant reach the data pn the dg, so you need to deport/import dg again.

ALL,
The issue has been solved.

Steps are,

/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdctl enable


/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdg -Cf import DG_NAME

/opt/VRTS/bin/vxrecover -g DG_NAME -sb

/opt/VRTS/bin/fsck /dev/vx/rdsk/DG_NAME /mount/point

/opt/VRTS/bin/mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/DG_NAME/LVOL_NAME /mount/point


i rebooted the machine, before the activity(i do not know is it must or not )
