Shalom,

Please post the commands you are using and the results of said commands.

Also, please post the following info:

Distro & kernel (uname -a works)
Serviceguard version
Shared storage type
Multipath SW if any

If there is anything in the system log (/var/log/messages) related to the lock lun during cluster fomration, that portionof the log is also helpful.

Dear All ,
I compile the command is cmcheckconf -v -C /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/cmclconf.ascii -n Muatra005 -n Muatra004 and later is cmapplyconf -v -C /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/cmclconf.ascii .

And the output is successfull apply .

Current OS version is RHEL 3 with update3 .

I also checking the /var/log/message , i found out lun lock holding by node1( Muatra005) .At the same time , i also try to unplug all network cable on the node1( Muatra005) .The result is node2 (Muatra004) TOC (reboot) ,later node 1(Muatra005) following TOC .The package fail over to node 2 (Muatra004) .

Any idea ?

Thanks

Leongko,

On the cmapplyconf, I believe you are missing info in your post here. There should be a "-L" with the lock lun designator (for example /dev/sdc1). I'm guessing that you did the command correctly but didn't list all of the information here.

Can you caputure the output of the cmviewcl -v command and post it. That will show the LockLUN information as well as some other detail.

On the logs, I was not complete in my request. Can you attach just that portion of the log that has information about the lockLun and around the time you did the test you described.

Thanks

HI Expert ,
May I know what the command to apply the cluster file .

cmapply -v -C /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/cmclconf.ascii -n Muatra005 -L /dev/sdc2 -n Muatra004 -L /dev/sda2

This command isn't right ?

Thanks
LeongKO

You have:
cmapply -v -C /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/cmclconf.ascii -n Muatra005 -L /dev/sdc2 -n Muatra004 -L /dev/sda2

it should be:
cmapplyconf -v -C /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/cmclconf.ascii -n Muatra005 -L /dev/sdc2 -n Muatra004 -L /dev/sda2

Again, this is likely a typo.

Also, it is unusual to have different disk identifiers for the two different nodes. Please check very carefully that /dev/sdc2 on Muatra005 and /dev/sda2 on Muatra004 are the same LUN.

Are you giving the exact command you used or are you typing an example? /dev/sda is almost ALWAYS and internal disk and could not be used as LockLUN.

Again, if you cut & paste the result of cmviewcl -v, as well as the log information requested, it would help.

Hi ,
The /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdc2 is a same lun .The device path is belong share disk so that configure as Lun Lock .

Posibble that i used the devlabel -u (device_id) -s /dev/lun on the both server .
Later on the cluster script Lun Lock change to /dev/lun ,isn't work ?

Thanks for advice

The only supported device names for Lock Lun are those that are naturally defined by the drivers. So for a FibreChannel device a LockLUN must have a name in the form /dev/sdxxx. This would be teh case for your array. CCISS names are also supported with the MSA500.

Hope this helps your understanding.

At this stage, it might be faster if you put in a call to HP support. They can help get all of the information, such as the log information, necessary fromt eh system to help with your problems.
