pkg in halting state how to clear

[Jonathan Caplette_1]

Hello

I've run into an error while halting a pkg, I had to break my cmhaltpkg command, now my cluster view (cmviewcl) shows the pkg in halting state, how do I clear this out?

HI

Could you please provide the package control logs for the package on the node that the packcage was running.
Please do attach the same.
regards

If the package is in a halting state, it means that the package halt script is still running so something is probably hung. Look at the package log to see how far it got and work out what the problem is. Worst comes to the worst, us ps to determine the package halt script and kill this. This should cause the package to move to the failed state and you will need to clear things up manually. e.g. remove package IP addresses, deactivate VGs etc. depending on how far you got.

If you can afford downtime:

# cmhaltcl -f -v
# cmruncl -v


If not, try

# cmrunpkg -n psa1h01 HRPRD

and then try to halt the pkg again..

This will not work if the package is stuck in the halting state.

I solved that problem by killing the hung process of Oracle... After the kill the PKG status went on Halted state and Unowned...

I had to re-enable the pkg to run on my node, and I've been able to manipulate it again...

The problem origin was from a Oracle upgrade, and the oracle script was not update properly...

Thanks for the answer...
