vmunix message

Has anybody seen this message before?

Convert To h/w path: =
Returning Success !
Convert To h/w path: hw_path = 3/0/12/1/0/4/0.6.22.0.0.0.3

Appears every 12 hours on syslog. The machine is ok, but the H/W path correspond to the only disk on vg00 and it's a symmetrix disk.

Thanks

Shalom cesar,

I've seen something similar when a disk was offline for some reason due to business or timeout and it became responsive again.

Is the disk very busy?

Look yourself:

#sar -t 3 3
device bps sps msps

c9t0d3 0 0.0 1.0
c15t0d3 0 0.0 1.0


c9t0d3 13 1.7 1.0
c15t0d3 0 0.3 1.0

c9t0d3 14 2.3 1.0
c15t0d3 13 1.7 1.0

c9t0d3 and c15t0d3 are the same disk, c15t0d3 is the alternative path. The HW path 3/0/12/1/0/4/0.6.22.0.0.0.3 correspond to c9t0d3.

Thanks

Hi,
if the message is every day at the same hour try to check for crontab jobs.

crontab -l (by root for root crontab jobs)

cd /var/spool/cron/crontabs/

more *

for check all crontab jobs

I've checked all crontab jobs and there's nothing about the message

And about the disk:

#iostat -t 3 3
device bps sps msps

c9t0d3 0 0.0 1.0
c15t0d3 0 0.0 1.0

c9t0d3 138 18.1 1.0
c15t0d3 164 20.7 1.0

c9t0d3 65 8.3 1.0
c15t0d3 43 6.0 1.0


Thanks

c9t0d3 is the disk on the hw path 3/0/12/1/0/4/0.6.22.0.0.0.3 and c15t0d3 y the alternate path.
