Hello
Nothing to worry till other disks in same dg have configuration copies.
Find the DG associated with c2t3d7.
#vxdg list will show config is enabled for other disks.
config: seqno=0.1029 permlen=640 free=638 templen=1 loglen=96
config disk c4t1d1 copy 1 len=640 state=clean online
config disk c4t1d3 copy 1 len=640 state=clean online
log disk c4t1d1 copy 1 len=96
log disk c4t1d3 copy 1 len=96

Thank you ranveer. I had seen that note but pardon me I still dont understand whats the difference between both servers in terms of configurations to show different outputs

Hi,

A copy of the vxvm configuration database is only put on a default number of luns off a vxvm diskgroup.

I think the default number of luns that has a copy of the vxvm configuration database for any vxvm diskgroup, is 6. If a vxvm diskgroup has more then 6 luns, then only the first 6 luns that were added to the vxvm diskgroup, will have a copy of the vxvm configuration database, as part of the vxvm header, and the rest of the luns not.

To check which vxvm luns in the diskgroup have a copy of the vxvm configuration database execute the, "vxdg list " command and the luns that have, will have a "log and config in enabled state".

Different vxvm diskgroups will have different luns that will have a "log and config in enabled" state.
