VxVM 4.1 Storage Migration - From 38G disks to 33GB disks, how to do?
Can someone point me in the right direction? Additional info: Volumes are striped, using both filesystem and raw (oracle Database). Can also reconfigure the destination disk to be 66GB. Presenting approx 1/2 the number of disks. My OS admin says I need to provide the exact number of drives, which need to be the same size of larger.I disagree and need to provide the process to them. I dont want to overprovision if I use larger disk sizes. Thanks! Bruce.
rhel 5.6 and vrts 5.1
Hi, I did last weekend yum updates on 7 RHEL ( Enterprise Server) 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 to version 2.6.18-308.8.2.el5 . All of this servers has Veritas 5.6 and Veritas Cluster 5.1 on top. The problem we run in was on the vrts level. For example , a simple vxdisk list command takes 5 to 10 minutes to come with his output. From the Symantec SORT site , we've found the patches for the version 5.6 and installed this. The patch VRTSvxvm-5.1.132.300-SP1RP2P3_RHEL5; VRTSvxfen-5.1.132.200-SP1RP2P2_RHEL5; VRTSvxfs-5.1.101.000-RP1_RHEL5. But with no results. At the END of the night, we've booted the RHEL servers with the Previous kernel 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 . Than, the Veritas disk commands runs as before . Is the kernel in the Compatibility Matrix or has someone a brilliant idea? (I need a solution is more as I would like to have a solution(°_°)) Regards Ivo
