doing a DRD clone on a 11.31 VM
keeps failing at the making clone image bootable
the following error appears
unable to stat " /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/dev/vg00/lvswap1"
lvswap1 no longer exsists as has been removed - cannot see where this is being picked up from by the clone process !
We have just downloaded and used the latest DRD software same error
Any ideas would be good as spent too long looking at his and am now going round in circles
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: drd clone fails - making clone image bootable fails
You can enable additional logging / debugging messages to try to figure out what's happening:
Remove all files under /var/opt/drd/tmp, then run your DRD clone as below:
# export SMDDEBUG_SMDinit=9
#export INST_DEBUG=5
#drd clone -t /dev/disk/diskXXX -x overwrite=true -x verbosity=5
Once it has finished, or has failed, check the log files in /var/opt/drd/tmp.

Re: drd clone fails - making clone image bootable fails
thanks for the info
Found a reference to lvswap1 in one of the files but still dont know where it comes from
looks like some reference to the kernel as has /kconfig/Modules in the file
but the one containing the lvswap1 reference has a section starting
/pri_swap_node (0x1)
under this is
ps_path KR_VTYPE_STRING "/dev/vg00/lvswap1" (0x1)
so again where is DRD getting this info as lvlnboot shows swap as lvol2 - is there a way to change it in kernel to be lvol2 if that is where it is getting this info !!

Re: drd clone fails - making clone image bootable fails
The lvlnboot output will only show your PRIMARY swap, which is usually lvol2.
However, you may have other swap logical volumes configured in VG00. You can look to see what swap you have configured via the 'swapinfo -tam' command. You should also look in /etc/fstab to see what swap areas are to be activated on system boot.
If the output of 'swapinfo' and the volumes listed in /etc/fstab do not match then that may be a problem. Since LVOL2 is the primary swap space, it will NOT be listed in /etc/fstab.

Re: drd clone fails - making clone image bootable fails
Shalom,
I have some experience with this issue. Normally this happens when the target disk has issues. The disk may be beginning to fail.
I've also seen it less often as a result of a software defect.
swlist -l bundle DynRootDisk
Please post and consider using the most current version.

Re: drd clone fails - making clone image bootable fails
Hi SEP
disk is a lun on SAN so not a physical disk in server
We are using the latest version of drd - B11.31.A.3.11.328 clone was also failing with previous version which is why we updated just in case !!

SolutionOk gave in a raised a support case
They believed some reference to lvswap1 was hanging about or removed incorrectly
So we just did an lvcreate / lvremove of lvswap1 - this appears to have cleared the issue and the clone now completes ok
