unable to mirror a boot disk.

[Bendoumah_Abdel]

Hi everyone,

I have an issue mirroring a boot disk with an other disk :

  VxVM  WARNING V-5-2-1563 There is insufficient space on disk rootdg01 to mirror all the volumes on disk rootdg02

best regards.

Run:

vxdisk list rootdg01 | egrep "public:|private:"
vxdisk list rootdg02 | egrep "public:|private:"

If the source disk has no free space, then the target disk needs to have an equal or greater public len - if it is smaller, it could be because the private region is bigger on your target disk, in which case you need to reinitialise your target disk.

vxdisksetup -i disk_name privlen=size_of_private_len_on_the_disk

where diskname is the name of the disk in the 1st column of "vxdisk list", not the Volume Manager disk media record (rootdg01)

Hi,

they are the same :

root@t5k-srv1 # vxdisk list rootdg01 | egrep "public:|private:"

public:    slice=4 offset=0 len=585007200 disk_offset=71424

private:   slice=3 offset=1 len=71423 disk_offset=0

root@t5k-srv1 # vxdisk list rootdg02 | egrep "public:|private:"

public:    slice=3 offset=0 len=585007200 disk_offset=71424

private:   slice=4 offset=1 len=71423 disk_offset=0

best regards.

Could you provide output of "vxprint" and "vxdg free".

Also how are you mirroring - vxdiskadm or command line - please give option selected in a menu, or command line you are using.
