Hi, VxVM 5.0MP3 onwards has this facility of removing stale device paths from the DMP kernel database. Prior to this release DMP reatined the information of stale device paths until the next reboot.

There was a storage migration from Hitachi to EMC, and after the Hitachi LUNs were removed the vxdmpadm still indicates the paths to the old disks, in DISABLED state. Is there a way to remove these paths online, without reconfig reboot? Did anyone encountered such a situation and solved it without reboot? - cfgadm -al shows only the new disks - vxdisk list shows only the new disks - format shows only the new disks - /dev/vc/[r]dmp is cleaned of devices indicating the old disks - /dev/[r]dsk has only the new devices (cleaned with devfsadm) - vxconfigd -k has been run (freezed the groups); after vxdctl enable the paths still remained: NAME STATE[A] PATH-TYPE[M] DMPNODENAME ENCLR-TYPE ENCLR-NAME ATTRS ================================================================================ NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - NONAME DISABLED - NONAME Disk Disk - Thank you in advance, Gy. PS. there is similar situation also with VxVM version 5.01-MP1 _______________________________________________ Veritas-vx maillist - [email protected] http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-vx
