I am unable mount the VxVM volumes with VxDF file ystems on RHEL 6.3 (2.6.32-279.11.1.el6.x86_64).
# rpm -q VRTSvxfs
VRTSvxfs-6.0.100.200-RHEL6.x86_64
# mount /vol01
UX:vxfs mount.vxfs: ERROR: V-3-22168: Cannot open portal device: No such file or directory
UX:vxfs mount.vxfs: ERROR: V-3-25255: mount.vxfs: You don't have a license to run this program
# lsmod | grep vx
vxspec 3366 8
vxio 3763980 1 vxspec
vxdmp 408656 5 vxspec,vxio
# ls -la /dev/vxportal
ls: cannot access /dev/vxportal: No such file or directory
I have installed the latest patch available. Please help.
Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.

Update - There is a compatibility issue with that kernel update and the VxFS kernel components of Storage Foundation and High Availability Solutions 6.0.1. Symantec are investigating.
The Late breaking news technote for SFHA 6.0 & 6.0.1 has been updated:

Have you checked licenses to check vxfs is licensed:
If you have entered licences
vxlicrep
If you are using built in eval licences (keyless licencing):
vxkeyless -v display

You have not specified any options with this command: 'mount /vol01'.
Does this mean that you have an entry for this mount point in fstab? If so, please show us the entry in fstab.

Thanks for your comments.
I have since uninstalled completely and installed v6.0.2 (released 2 days ago). During the installation I received this message:
Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability Install did not complete successfully VRTSvxfs rpm failed to install on oslo VRTSvxfs rpm failed to install on helsinki rpms/patches failed to install. Do you want to exit installer? [y,n,q] (y) n
This is before I selected licensing option. The error in the install log reads:
[root@oslo installer-201210242303bLe]# more install.VRTSvxfs.oslo Preparing packages for installation... VRTSvxfs-6.0.100.000-GA_RHEL6 Installing module init file "/etc/init.d/vxfs" Error in loading module "vxfs". See documentation. Failed to create /dev/vxportal ERROR: Module fdd does not exist in /proc/modules ERROR: Module vxportal does not exist in /proc/modules ERROR: Module vxfs does not exist in /proc/modules ERROR: No appropriate VxFS drivers found that can be loaded. See VxFS documentation for the list of supported platforms.
Looks like the VxFS rpm is the same as in v6.0.1.
The keyless license reads:
[root@oslo bin]# ./vxkeyless -v display Product Description SFHAENT_VR_GCO SF Enterprise Edition with Cluster Server and VR & GCO
vxlicrep is also attached.
During configuration I noticed:

I have attached all the vxportal, fdd & vxodm start logs. It looks like the RHEL 6.3 support is still not fixed as commented in https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/vxfs-fails-after-update-rhel-63
Yes, /vol01 is in fstab:

Much appreciated.

I lost my last posting; trying again....
Since then I have uninstalled SFHA completely and installed the latest 6.0.2 (release couple of days ago).
Error during installation:

It is licensed (see attachement):

It looks like a compatibility issue as in http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/vxfs-fails-after-update-rhel-63.
Can Symantec please confirm that SFHA v6.0.2 is supported on RHEL 6.0 Update 3? If not is there a patch for VxFS?
Much appreciated.

The spam filter has quarantined some of your posts. I can see them, but cannot release them. Have asked Admins.

I would suggest that you open a Support call.

SFHA 6.0.1 is compatible with RHEL 6.3, there was incompatibility issue with the previous release, 6.0. I have done a couple of installs with no issues like the above.
One item that is of interest is that your kernel version is uprev form the one on my test system so am guessing you are on a later release/patch.
Let me dig into this and report back

Update - I did a test using that a very recent RHEL update (kernel 2.6.32-279.11.1.el6.x86_64) and also hit a issue with VxFS 6.0.1. We are still investigating, I will update when I have more information
