vxinstall error
I have an issue of running vxinstall in a clustered mode. I have a two node cluster and the following error occurs when i do a vxinstall.
Do you want to use enclosure based names for all disks ?
[y,n,q,?] (default: n) y
Populating VxVM DMP device directories ....
VxVM vxconfigd ERROR V-5-1-480 Cannot reset VxVM kernel: A virtual disk device is open
Even though i did not start configuring disk groups or filesystems , i get this error.Can anyone say why this happens. This doesnt happen in a standaloned VSF5.0 node.

Re: vxinstall error
I dont have much idea on VxVM, but this is what i'm getting below:
V-5-1-480
VxVM vxconfigd ERROR V-5-1-480 Cannot reset VxVM kernel: reason
â Description:
The -r reset option was specified to vxconfigd, but the VxVM
kernel drivers could not be reset. The most common reason is â A virtual disk device
is open.â This implies that a VxVM tracing or volume device is open.
â Action:
If you want to reset the kernel devices, track down and kill all processes that
have a volume or Veritas Volume Manager 5.0 tracing device open. Also, if any
volumes are mounted as file systems, unmount those file systems.
Any reason other than â A virtual disk device is openâ does not normally occur unless
there is a bug in the operating system or in VxVM.
Thanks & Regards
Ramesh

Re: vxinstall error
I also read this comment earlier. But as i said earlier i do not have the disks initialized even.After i present the lun from the storage to both the nodes this happens.So this happens only in cluster environment.

Re: vxinstall error
Use the following commands to determine if key VxVM processes are running:
ps -ef | grep vx
ps -ef | grep dg
The output should include the following VxVM processes:
vxiod
vxnotify
vxrelocd
vxconfigd
