Re: Why am I getting MOUNT-F-DEVOFFLINE for local disk
systems?
May I assume that neither of these RZ28M
disks is a system disk?
If the systems had been powered down, it's
possible that the disk has become old and
tired, and it did not spin up in time to be
ready when its own system tried to mount it.
Now that the second system has mounted it,
can you get the first system to mount it,
too?
If it's getting slow to spin up, it may be
time to start shopping around for a new disk.

Re: Why am I getting MOUNT-F-DEVOFFLINE for local disk
On system1 I run shutdown with auto reboot. I get the DEVOFFLINE message on system1's console. Shortly (within a minute) after the message is displayed and system1 is still booting; on system2 I go into SYSMAN, set env/node=system1 and run the mount command for disk1 that failed during system1's boot and the disk mounts properly.
If I don't use SYSMAN and wait until system1 finishes booting, I can log onto system1 and run the mount command and disk1 mounts properly.
Both disks are now properly mounted on both systems.
Also, all other disks (DUAxxx) are connected via HSD controllers and are mounted before mounting these local/internal disks (DKAxxx).

Re: Why am I getting MOUNT-F-DEVOFFLINE for local disk
there is a little example on SYS$EXAMPLES:CLU_MOUNT_DISK.COM
how to mount disks properly via MSCP.
I usually add some additional code to check
whether the disk is already mounted and to add a
maximum retry counter.

Re: Why am I getting MOUNT-F-DEVOFFLINE for local disk
in case of a locally attached SCSI disk I would
guess that the spin-up of the disk takes too long.
This can be caused by a hardware defect or a missing
spin-up jumper.
So if you did not change any jumpers on your disk,
I would guess that the main drive of the disk is
gradually dying.

Re: Why am I getting MOUNT-F-DEVOFFLINE for local disk
in your mount procedure, you might want to check the status of the MOUNT command and wait 10 secs and retry the command, if you get a DEVOFFLINE error. Do this in a loop with a maximum no. of attempts set to e.g. 10.
