Re: syslog error

hi,

some application / scheduled job is backuping your VG-s,

form the man page = vgexport

-p Preview the actions to be taken but do not update the /etc/lvmtab file or remove the devices file. This option is best used in conjunction with the -v option.

that menas it hase no impact to your system.

Re: syslog error

i guess...this may be result of ignite backup or any backup procedure runs on your system.

#nothing to worry..it does not do any harm it just creating mapfiles of your vgs.

Re: syslog error

hi,

if you use DataProtector, Netbackup or some backup solution, check if you have some scheduled backup jobs.

Re: syslog error

It can be of ignite backup OR a system conf collection script which you scheduled on cron.

usually i had seen ignite backup rumay be can vgcfgbackup & vgmap file backup. BUt the doubtful thing is its used to take map file with options "-s -p -m". here its different.

So i feel, it will be because of any script, which taking mapfile backup.

Have a look on cronlog & check which are the script ran on May 26 7AM.
