"Volume or plex device is open or attached" when creating primary RVG

Hello,

I'm deploying a new cluster with VVR, and at the step of creating the replication, I have the following error : 

[root@vmu-bck-01:/]# vradmin -g nbu_dg createpri nbu_dg_rvg nbu_catalog_lv srl_log_lv
Message from Primary:
VxVM vxvol ERROR V-5-1-10127 associating volume srl_log_lv with nbu_dg_rvg:
Volume or plex device is open or attached

I found an old topic when the reason was because of some FS mounted, but I have nothing mounted on my side.

I can't see any reason and I don't know where to look why I have this issue.

Any help ?

Thanks

  • Hello,

    I found the reason, there was actually a mount point on the primary server (I only looked at the secondary).

    Thanks for your reply.

  • Can you please run the commands below

    vxprint -htg  nbu_dg 

    vradnin -g nbu_dg  printrvg

    vradmin -g nbu_dg  printvol
