Message Definition
|
V-5-0-100
|
DCM Logs not accessible, dcm logging aborted
|
DCM logs are not accessible. This might have happened due to a media failure, in which case, other errors may have been logged to the console. This error is unlikely to occur, because the default is to mirror the DCM.
|
V-5-0-102
|
DCM volume vol name is detached
|
The DCM volume became detached because a DCM log entry cannot be written. This might have happened due to a media failure, in which case other errors may have been logged to the console. Any RLINKs currently using the DCM will be detached and marked STALE. This error is unlikely to occur, because the default is to mirror the DCM.
|
V-5-0-107
|
Detaching rlink rlink_name due to I/O error on remote SRL during recovery
|
When the original Primary comes up after it has been taken over, an I/O error has occurred on the original Primary's SRL while performing recovery. The new Primary has detached the RLINK that connects to the failed Primary because now there is no way to make the old Primary consistent and convert it to a Secondary of the new Primary.
Action: Fix the I/O error on the SRL, convert the original Primary into a Secondary of the new Primary, and perform a complete synchronization.
|
V-5-0-280
|
Rlink rlink STALE due to log overflow
|
The specified RLINK has fallen too far behind, and overflowed the SRL. It will be detached and marked STALE. The Secondary will require a complete resynchronization. This can be avoided in the future by using the RLINK's srlprot attribute.
|
V-5-0-287
|
rvg rvg_name, SRL srl: Inconsistent log - detaching all rlinks
|
SRL contains corrupt data, and so is not usable. All RLINKs are detached and marked STALE. All secondaries will require a complete resynchronization. This error probably indicates a bug in VVR. Action: Contact VERITAS Customer Support.
|
V-5-0-288
|
Secondary log overflowed. Pausing rlink rlink_name
|
Specified Secondary RLINK gets paused.
Action: Associate the SRL of the same size as that of Primary to the Secondary RVG and resume the RLINK.
|
V-5-0-293
|
SRL for RVG rvg_name contains old version of SRL header
|
Specified SRL associated with the RVG is of older version. You may not have followed the proper procedure for upgrading VVR as described in Release Notes.
Action: Refer to the latest Release Notes for the correct upgrading procedures.
|
V-5-1-435
|
Cannot allocate space for 20480 block volume or not enough disks for creating dcm with 2 mirrors
|
By default, the DCM is mirrored; therefore, it requires space on two disks. An attempt to associate a DCM to a new data volume or an existing data volume failed because sufficient space is not available.
Action: We recommend that you provide the required space. Alternatively, you can specify nlog=1 in the vxassist make or vxassist addlog command.

Failing writes on rvg rvg_name. Remote is now a primary rvg.

|
cannot log error for rvg rvg_name
|
The messages in this set mean that VVR attempted to log the specified event in the kernel log; however, the attempt failed. The attempted write to the log failed either because the kernel log is full or because of a write error to the drive.
Action: If error messages were seen from the disk driver, it is likely that the last copy of the log failed due to a disk error. The failed drive in the disk group must be replaced and the log will then be re-initialized on the new drive.
If there were no error messages from the disk driver, contact VERITAS Customer Support.
