VCS 5.1 - DG import fails to the new node
Hi,
I have recently added a new node to a cluster and it joined the cluster with no problem... but whe I tried to import a DG to the node it fails...
Note that this DG is available and imported in a different node.
Here si the log when it WORKED in a existing node:
2014/01/16 00:49:42 VCS NOTICE V-16-1-10301 Initiating Online of Resource md_DG (Owner: unknown, Group: mdm) on System D-node6

And here is when it FAILED in the new node:

Looking into the old dicussions I have tried this but still didnt work...: changed before importing
# vxdmpadm settune dmp_cache_open=off
Tunable value will be changed immediately
# vxdmpadm gettune all | grep cache
dmp_cache_open off on
But I got the same error.
Same thing o var/adm/mesages:

Any suggestion?
Tks,

Veritas Volume Manager only sees the disks the O/S sees, so if Solaris "format" command only see the 7 disks from oradg01 and the 2 internal disks and "format" cannot see the 2 disks for the md_DG diskgroup, then you need to fix issue with your O/S not seeing the disks, which could be an issue with the O/S, the FC switches or the disk array.
