This is a known bug on HACMP!

Have a look into this:

http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1311133&page=4

Which oslevel are you in? (oslevel -s)

I think you need to apply an APAR. I got that one from IBM, i will come back to you with the APAR number soon.

You need to apply the APAR - IY91953 to fix this issue.

But prerequisite to install this APAR is to apply TL05 (If you are in AIX5.3)

As a work around to this is to restart the Cluster!

I have been trying to resolve this issue in many ways, but no success as you indicated.
Pls let me revisit the issues I have.

PDC1>
mklv -y prod_4096_254 -t raw prod6vg 32 hdisk148
The distribution of this command (111) failed on one or more passive nodes.
0516-822 mklv: Unable to create logical volume.

To fix this, on the failover node, I tried:

- vary off prod6vg
- ps -aef | grep 8c956b | grep gsclvmd
the <pid> removed
- vary on prod6vg

but, I am getting this error below:

PDC2>
varyonvg -cn prod6vg
srcsrqt failed errno : SRC_NORPLY
tellclvmd: request failed rc = -9056 [SRC_NORPLY]
0516-1334 varyonvg: The command /usr/sbin/tellclvmd returned an error.

I am on AIX 5.2.8, and HA version is:

Having said these...

Is APAR - IY91953 the one I need to install still as to I am AIX 5.2.8?

After the APAR install, do I need a downtime anyways?

thx much

Have a look into these links:

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1fixinfo1069

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IY91953

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IY91954

If you go to TL09 then you should be fine!

You need a downtime to apply this as you will have to stop the cluster and better reboot the machine after applying the TL.
