What is the customer trying to accomplish? This command is typically used to configure the cnx partition in the boot partition of a cluster member node.

Can you give the output of 'disklabel dsk11c'?

Hello,

Thank you for quick reply and suggestion.
And I am sorry for confusing you.

I let you know the reason why he use 'clu_bdmgr' command.

The customer has a system disk for active, and for stand by disk.
Essentially, if any change has occurred at active system, he must apply it to
stand by system. So he save the data by using vdump, and restore by using vrestore.
But he use "clu_dbmgr" command for individual setting.

And 'dsk11' is for stand by disk.

>Can you give the output of 'disklabel dsk11c'?
We can not get the information. Sorry.
Instead of it, I attach the similar system's sys_check results.

Thank you for support and advice.
Best Regards.

Looks like something strange happened to the device database.

How is this supposed to work in the first place? Is the standby configuration identical to the production one? What about the storage, is that replicated with CA (or how do you make sure that the WWID's are identical)?
