108About Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability SolutionsKnown issuesthe system. On Solaris 11, add_drv may fail if there is another add_drv commandthat is being run on the system at the same time.Workaround:Check the status of LLT, GAB and Vxfen modules. Ensure that all the three servicesare online in SMF. Then, retry starting VCS.After you run the vxfenswap utility the CoordPoint agent may fault(2846389)After you run the vxfenswap utility, if the value of the FaultTolerance attributeof the CoordPoint agent is more than the majority (more than 50%) of thecoordination points then the Coordination Point agent faults.Workaround: Manually set the value of the FaultTolerance attribute of CoordPointagent to be less than the majority (more than 50%) of the coordination points.When I/O fencing is not up, the svcs command shows VxFEN as online(2492874)Solaris 10 SMF marks the service status based on the exit code of the start methodfor that service. The VxFEN start method executes the vxfen-startup script in thebackground and exits with code 0. Hence, if the vxfen-startup script subsequentlyexits with failure then this change is not propagated to SMF. This behavior causesthe svcs command to show incorrect status for VxFEN.Workaround: Use the vxfenadm command to verify that I/O fencing is running.The vxfenswap utility does not detect failure of coordination pointsvalidation due to an RSH limitation (2531561)The vxfenswap utility runs the vxfenconfig -o modify command over RSH orSSH on each cluster node for validation of coordination points. If you run thevxfenswap command using RSH (with the -n option), then RSH does not detectthe failure of validation of coordination points on a node. From this point,vxfenswap proceeds as if the validation was successful on all the nodes. But, itfails at a later stage when it tries to commit the new coordination points to theVxFEN driver. After the failure, it rolls back the entire operation, and exits cleanlywith a non-zero error code. If you run vxfenswap using SSH (without the -n option),then SSH detects the failure of validation of coordination of points correctly androlls back the entire operation immediately.Workaround: Use the vxfenswap utility with SSH (without the -n option).
About Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability SolutionsKnown issues109Fencing does not come up on one of the nodes after a reboot (2573599)If VxFEN unconfiguration has not finished its processing in the kernel and in themeantime if you attempt to start VxFEN, you may see the following error in the/var/VRTSvcs/log/vxfen/vxfen.log file:VXFEN vxfenconfig ERROR V-11-2-1007 Vxfen already configuredHowever, the output of the gabconfig -a command does not list port b. Thevxfenadm -d command displays the following error:VXFEN vxfenadm ERROR V-11-2-1115 Local node is not a member of cluster!Workaround: Start VxFEN again after some time.CP server configuration fails while setting up secure credentials for CPserver hosted on an SFHA cluster (2621029)When you configure CP server using the configure_cps.pl utility, theconfiguration fails while setting up secure credentials for CP server that is hostedon an SFHA cluster. You may see the following error:Creating softlink to credential directory /etc/VRTScps/db/CPSERVERon node nodename.Unable to connect to node nodename using /usr/bin/ssh.Please configure ssh communication and retry. Exiting.Workaround: You can use any of the following options:■■Before running the configure_cps.pl utility, change the default shell for rootuser to either KSH or bash.Perform the following steps after running the configure_cps.pl utility oneach node of the cluster:■Manually remove the old credential directory or softlink. For example:# rm -rf /var/VRTSvcs/vcsauth/data/CPSERVER■Create a new soft-link to the shared location of the credential directory:# ln -s path_of_CP_server_credential_directory \/var/VRTSvcs/vcsauth/data/CPSERVER■Start the CPSSG service group:# hagrp -online CPSSG -any
