Cluster Disk timed out, then failed event ID 1069
Hi. I have a six nodes Microsoft cluster nodes, Symantec Storage Foundation with SP1 is running. Recently I added a new node. Whenever I do a failover, the disk resources times out and failed then I have bring the disk resources online manually. Two error messages reported. One for timing out, 2nd for failure. Eror #1 (Event ID 1045) - Cluster resource <DiskResourceName> timed out. If the pending timeout is too short for this resource, consider increasing the pending timeout value Error #2 (Event ID 1069) - Cluster resource '<DiskName>' in Resource Group '<GroupName> Group' failed. Your help would be appreciated. Thanks Hatif9.5KViews0likes5CommentsHow to destroy a DG?
We removed some disk we no longer need but made an error in that a DG lost (unrecoverable) all its diskes. As this DG is not critical and we found some other small issues we want to remove the complete DG and create a new one. BUT. As the disks are in a deported state I am unbale to remove the DG. Is there a way around this issue? IvoSolved5.2KViews0likes6CommentsWindows File Share keeps getting lost on reboot of server
I wonder if anyone here can assist with this problem. We have a backup server which uses SFW5.0 which has a FC SAN connected o it. When we reboot the server it loses its File Share which we use to save all our backups to. The file share is located on a single volume, on an imported disk group. The volume comes up fine, but the share is always missing when we reboot. The only thing we can think of is that we had to implement a latestart on the Vertias service because it wasn't importing the disks correctly without this. Our feeling is that it might be to do with Microsoft waiting for the disk volume, when it doesn't see it, it stops trying to share the folder, perhaps because it is coming in so late as a result of the latestart. Has anyone encountered this or have a workaround to keep the shared folder coming up on reboots? NickSolved4.8KViews1like5CommentsReplication status for one RLINK is showing as "Activating"
Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows 4.3 MP1 / Windows 2003 Server SP2 Replication status for one RLINK is showing as "Activating" with a orange Arrow pointing upwards. DCM Log Usage is at 15% with nearly 13 million blocks pending. The icon for the RVG:secondary has a pause symbol next to it. How do I resume synchronization between this primary and secondary? Via the GUI, I have tried stopping and starting replication, using TCP and UDP as the replication protocol and tried hostnames and ip addresses as the Secondary side IP. I have tried dissocating the SRL log connected to the secondary and then associating it back but to no avail. The replication status just sits in "Activating". I have rebooted the primary and the secondary many times but that has made no difference. I have tried vradmin -g <DG> resync <RVG> but that just returns a prompt. vxrlink -g <DG> -i 5 status <rlk> shows that RLINK is in autosync with 15% remaining. Other primaries that replicate to this secondary are all replicating without issues. I guess my questions are: Why is this specific replication stuck in Activating / Paused? How do I get it out of this stuck state? Happy to provide more details / screenshots if helpfulCbhatt8 years agoLevel 34.6KViews0likes7CommentsHow can I setup monitoring and alerting for VVR?

VSFW 4.3 MP2 / Windows 2003 Sp2 I need to change the Internal Volume Name / Device Path of a volume from Volume1 to something more meaningful. Unfortunately, the name wasn't set before user data was placed on that volume so I cannot delete the volume. Can I change the internal name and, if so, how? Various forums suggest using "vxedit rename <oldname> <newname>" but that command doesn't seem to exist within VSFW Others suggest expanding the disks node in the tree view, right clicking the desired disk node and selecting "Change Disk Internal Name" from the context menu but I can't seem to find this option at all. Can this be done or is format / rename / restore the only option available to me? Thanks, ChrisCbhatt8 years agoLevel 34.2KViews0likes4CommentsHELP-HOW TO CONFIGURE VVR to two Servers

Hi all, We are in the proces of fully automating extending a volume. I need some information on which commands to do this with. To extend the correct disks I need the SerialNumbers of those disks so Storage management knows which luns to extend in the SAN environment. Does anyone know how to find these numbers through commands? Ivoeu2210611 years agoLevel 43.6KViews1like9Comments
