Veritas Volume manager 4.0 with Sun StorEdge 3310 D

I am running into a problem. The vxconfigd deamon always dump core when rebooting.

Our environment is listed below.

OS environemt.

SunOS server1 5.8 Generic_117350-43 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240

Software installed.

Sun Cluster 3.0

Veritas Volume Manager 4.0 MP2.

Disk Array associated.

Sun StorEdge 3310 D.

I looked up veritas.com and find Array Support Library (ASL) for Sun StorEdge 3xxx Series is recommended. But I didn't find this library is running on this server.

Please refer to this following link

http://support.veritas.com/docs/277923

As our system is one of critical systems and I'd like to confirm that I can follow up this procedure without doing harm things to our system.

Forgive me if I am wrong but I thought the 3xxx ASL is for fibre arrays only?! the 3310 is SCSI.CheersGaryg

I don't think you are right even though I am not familiar with ASL. However, that link that I mentioned in my comments doesn't indicate the fibre optical at all. Furthermore, I don't think there is a difference between SICS and Fibre, that's just a different media.

Anyway, thanks for your information.

No problem Jeff :)

I took a look at the Veritas doc and you're right it does seem to cover everthing.

Has the vxconfigd core dumped since the start? ie from the moment it was installed?

I have installed VXVM 4.0 with Solaris 8 but without the ASL and this worked ok, I know that's not much help to you but I am not sure the ASL will help. Mind you I have not installed it with Sun Cluster 3.0.

After a fews reboot, the problem disappeared and cannot reproduce now. The interesting thing is, even the another server that I didn't install ASL package seems be working ok as well. This problem could be puzzle forever.Jeff
