VCS engine (had) cann't start automatically

 this is the only node of the cluster1 that I am trying to start VCS.

as my experience, after SFHA installation, the veritas can start automatically with Solaris OS boot.

the below is the procedure of my operation

1.after SFHA installation, I found it cann't run "vxdisk list" command, it showing "Configuration daemon is not accessible"

so I follow the article and solved it https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH67777

2.then, i completed the synchronization between cluster1 and cluster2

3.when I try to config GCO with gcoconfig, it cann't work as well.at that time,I reboot the Solaris OS once and found it persist after reboot. so I try to start veritas with command "hastart -onenode" then I can config the GCO.

4.I completed all veritas configuration cluster1 and cluster 2 both.

5.I reboot the node of cluster1 and cluster2, after reboot, I found only the host of cluster1 cannot accese by VCS_Cluster_Manager_Java_Console. it show VCS ERROR V-16-10-106. But the host of cluster2 is fine.

please advice me.thanks in advance.

the detail information has been attached in files.

    Hello,

    You will need to make "hastart -oneenode" to go into startup scripts (/etc/rc2.d/S99vcs). This is because everytime VCS starts it has to know that there is only one node in the configuration.

    Also the GAB configuration in the system must be set to one node. The content of /etc/gabtab should have (gabconfig -c -n1  OR gabconfig -c -x) to allow self seeding.

    1.the existing content of  /etc/gabtab is         cat: cannot open /etc/gabtab

    should I delete this content and add    gabconfig -c -n1    into the gabtab file?

    2.how to make "hastart -onenode" to go into startup scripts (/etc/rc2.d/S99vcs)? just create file /etc/rc2.d/S99vcs,and add the hastart -onenode into S99vcs?

    finally, I create file /etc/rc2.d/S99vcs with content /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hastart -onenode, and chmod u+x

    modify the /etc/gabtab as

    #cat: cannot open /etc/gabtab
    gabconfig -c -n1

    it seem work fine.

    thank you Mr.Sangamnerkar
