I have a diskgroup contains of 4 LUN's that were used in the past by this same
host. It is now deported and somebody forgot to import and destroy it.
Now I want to re use it for something else. However everytime I tried to use
the import the diskgroup:
#vxdg import test_dg
It came back with an error:
VxVM vxdg ERROR V-5-1-10978 Disk group test_dg : import failed
Disk is sharable, operation not supported
or
# vxdg -tC import test_dg
same error as above
I tried to use the GUI (VEA) to import the diskgroup test_dg with the option:
x Clear host id
x Force
x Start all Volume
x Import shared
The GUI said:
Caution: You specified clear host ID.
This will allow the import of a dynamic disk group last used by another host
Are you sure you want to import this dynamic disk group to this host
x Yes
EVxVM vxdg ERROR Diskgroup 123456.24.sunshine: import failed
No valid disk found containing disk group
Failed to execute the operation
I tried to do vxdiskadm; and "vxdisksetup -i" to initialize each of the disks
but it failed also.
I am running Veritas Volume manager 5.0 mp1
Thanks for any suggestion or feedback.
