In preced log of panic I see "odm:odmstatvfs+90". I think this is root of panic, but due in lack of scat and mdb knowlage, I am cannot to investigate this module. When I delete VXVM, there is no panic when I issue the 'df'.

If I can provide more information about this case, please let me know. For now I dont know what additional info to provide.

Core dump is about of 400 MB, which is more than I can attach to this message.

    If you think issue is odm you could:

    1. umounted /dev/odm if it umounted
    2. Stop odm is it is running (it shows in output of gabconfig -a if it is running as port d I think)
    3. Unload odm from kernel ("modinfo | grep odm" and then modunload the id given)

    Then see if df still panics the system.

    ODM is an optional component used to improve the access to Oracel disk files

    Hi BradMC,

    On using the installer to install SFHA 6.0.1 in Solaris 11.1, the configuration question (which we want to supply "n" (no) should appear just after the license selection. Below is from a test system:

    After the 6.0.1 packages installation (but not configuration) is complete, you can use the "installmr" utility to install 6.0.3. After the 6.0.3 package installation, the installmr utility will prompt the configuration question again, for which we can now supply "y" (yes) to start the configuration phase:

     

    cheers

      Hi,
      I have installed SFHA 6.0.5 on top of SFHA 6.0.1
      it still panics with 'df' command.
      Should I need apply 6.0.3 patch before 6.0.5?

        This discussion from 2013 was solved.

        Is this the exact same system as reported by @Roman_Kuznetsov  ?

        If not - please start a new discussion and tell us more about your OS, hardware and unique environment.

    Sorry, I tried to delete the message quickly, as I saw there was need to keep 6.0.1 unconfigured before installing 6.0.3. I rebuilt the system, installed 6.0.1, then installed 6.0.3, and it worked. One note, though, using the text installer, you can't tell the installer to keep the 6.0.1 install unconfigured. It doesn't ask the question as in previous versions. However, by answering "No" to install license key, it will stay unconfigured.

    Brad, you originally wrote:

    I don't think 6.0.3 fixes the issue.� I have a Solaris 11.1(SPARC) install that would panic when 'df' was issued using 6.0.1.� I just installed 6.0.3 and it still panics with 'df

    But then 3 hours later you changed your comment to "...".  Does this mean that 6.0.3 does resolve the df panic which is why you removed the comment?

    Hi,

    We are looking to claim support of Solaris 11.1 with SFHA 6.0.3 due soon. I will post an update when 6.0.3 has been released.

    cheers

    So nice! We got it!

    I know that I have no support of glorious company Veritas, but this can be a bug. It would be nice to bug report or some. How I can to do this, and whether exist the reason for it?

    Thank you, Mike!
