Problem start Virtual Machine Guest (mount FileSystem)

[Eli Daniel]

Hi,
i have the problem start VM Guest:

UX:vxfs fsck: ERROR: V-3-25742: /dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP:sanity check failed: cannot open /dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP: No such device or address

[Torsten.]

IMHO the messages says all:

cannot open /dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP: No such device or address

[Eli Daniel]

Hi Torsten
after you start the computer:
run command
mount /dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP /usr/sap/PBP

mount point is activated

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

fsck probably needs to be run on the file system. After that you can probably start the guest.

Steven,
command was executed

fsck-F vxfs-y-or full / dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP

But after restarting shows the same error message

[Torsten.]

It's not clear where you get what message and where you run what command - guest or host.

[Eli Daniel]

Torsten, the message show in the Virtual Machine Guest, the filesystem add in the fstab, but starting VM guest not mount the filesystem.

We would need to know how your VM is using disk, is it using LVdisk from host.
Or vg01 is created inside virtal machine.

HOST#hpvmstatus -v -P VM_name

is your VM up, check if you have both
/dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP and
/dev/vg01/rlvusersapPBP

BR,

yes, in the virtual host is add the lv disk to virtual machine guest

disk avio_stor 0 0 0 10 0 disk /dev/rdsk/c41t8d3

Yes, in the fstab add the line:

/dev/vg01/lvusersapPBP /usr/sap/PBP vxfs delaylog,nodatainlog,largefiles 0 2

[Torsten.]

On which kind of physical storage is the device /dev/rdsk/c41t8d3?

SAN based array?

Multipath software in use (if hp-ux 11.23)?
