IgniteUX Server Setup - Make depot from CD/DVD

[Sergej Kleva]

Hi!
I am trying to make depot from DVD HPUX 11.31 March 2010.

I have insert DVD HPUX 11.31 March 2010 into machine and go through IgniteUX server setup WIzard. When i want to make depot "Copy CD/DVD" it fails to start and i get error message at cmd:
diskinfo: can't open /dev/rdsk/c9t0d16: No such file or directory

If i look at "ioscan -fnC disk" i get the following for DVD drive:

disk 3 0/0/2/1.0.16 UsbScsiAdaptor CLAIMED DEVICE USB SCSI Stack Adaptor
/dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001
/dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/rdsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001

So i mount it with:
mount /dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001 /DVD_ROM

But again i get the same error!?!?
Why igniteux is looking for /dev/rdsk/c9t0d16 ???

that raw device doesn't exists on that machine at all!

Any help would be appreciated!

Brgds,
S.

Do you have such entry in fstab?

I assume the option "mount everything ..." applies, so the system is looking for a missing device listed in fstab.

[SergejK_1 · Accepted solution]

No!

hamra / # more /etc/fstab

# See fstab(4) and sam(1M) for further details on configuring devices.

Any leftover entries somewhere regarding removed LVM configurations?

Listed in

# ll /dev/rdsk

# strings lvmtab

or LVM configuration backups?

[Torsten.]

It is a bit strange, because it is 11.31 and it complains about legacy device files.

What is in

# ls -la /etc/lvmconf

[Torsten.]

You have vg00 configured only, but you have backups for vg01..vg04.


Expected?

This may happen if you don't correctly remove a VG or after cloning systems.



Search them *all* with commands like

# strings /etc/lvmconf/vg01.conf
...


or

# vgcfgrestore -f /etc/lvmconf/vg01.conf -l

[Torsten.]

BTW, having configuration backups of non-existing VGs may create very strange results sometimes.

I expect this is the reason here too.

[Sergej Kleva]

I have vg01...vg04 physical disks for HP Integrity virtual machines. There are 4 virtual machines installed. Each have one physical disk attached.

Which backup you are talking about? :)

Brgds,
S.

But they are not listed here:

hamra /etc # strings lvmtab

/dev/disk/disk11_p2

[Sergej Kleva]

Please can you explain why they should be listed there?

[Sergej Kleva]

btw: i don't want any backup going on on that disks (vg01-vg04)
How can i stop configuration backup?

[Torsten.]

Configuration backups are done automatically.

If vg01 ... vg04 are active on your server, they must be in lvmtab too.

Are they active???

[Pulse001]

Hi Serqej,

Torsten is right , even though the VG's are used for HPVM, they will be listed here on the VM host.

What type of backing store do you use for your VM guest ?
I use LVOL's to create filesystems or virtual LV disks and then present it to my VM guest. Still in both cases, the VG does exist on the VM host.

[Sergej Kleva]

They should not be active ... As i have said in previous post:
Beside the system disk I do have 4 more physical disk. Each disk is attached to virtual machine
How can i check if they are active?

Brgds,
S.

Is this system installed from DVD or cloned from somewhere else?

[Sergej Kleva]

From DVD i think March 2008

[Torsten.]

I'm sure the /dev/rdsk/c9t0d16 device is somewhere declared in the various configuraion files (ignite?). Maybe a find can help.

[Sergej_5]

The question is in which files? :)

Brgds,
S.

[Torsten.]

Hence a search ...

[Sergej_5]

How can i search within file for determined string? awk , sed?
