Veritas/DiskSuite

I am working on a study on Veritas Volume Manager and Solstice DiskSuite.
Do you have any information on these products : I'd like to have advantages and defaults of each of them. I have link on document on Web but I'd like to have user's point of view.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
You've already got volume manager, so why not use it? If you install ODS as well as VXVM, you're just complicating the setup of the machine.
You've got veritas already installed, just use this!

D1000

We have a D1000 disk array already configured with 8 x 9GB disks. We need to add more space
and are about to order 2 x 18GB disks. Is there any problem with mixing disks of different
sizes within a D1000 array?
All the best
Peter Wickett

Since this is "Just a Box Of Disks" there should be no problem mixing drive sizes. Due consideration will have to be given if using any type of mirroring software, Veritas, DiskSuite, etc..

Solstice DiskSuite or Veritas Volume Manager

With regards to Solaris 8,
I plan to use DiskSuite to create a few 0+1 volumes for our new database server. Any reason for me to consider Veritas Volume Manager instead?
We have an E5000 running Solaris 2.6 with Veritas Volume Manager 3.2, we are only using it for 0+1 volumes(vxfs). No snaphosts, fast I/O or any other bells and whilste of VM are being used.

apologies my original post was incorrectly posted to the wrong forum.

Solstice DiskSuite 4.2.1 Installation

Hi,
I have a SUN fire 880 system running Solaris 8 and 72GBX10 Disk.
right now 8 disk are configured in Veritas Volume Manager and one disk has root and other file system and one more disk is still free so I am planning to mirror root disk with free disk in ( Solstice DiskSuite 4.2.1) please advice me
My Qustion is
1>Is it possible ???
2>From where I can get Solstice DiskSuite 4.2.1 packages???.
Thanks in advance..
Bhupal

Yes, but some versions of VxVM require a 'rootdg' remain. You may or may not prefer to simply use VxVM to mirror root.
The packages are on disk2 of the installation media in the EA folder.

Backup MaxDB 7.7.06.09 to Veritas Netbackup 6.5 fails

We want to backup MaxDB to Veritas Netbackup server.
According documentation found about this topic the backup is configured
by creating 3 files: bsi.env, initWDO.par (for backint for MaxDB) and
initWDO.utl (for backint for Oracle). The contents of these files are shown below.
When running the backup, it seems that backint for MaxDB ends with return code 2,
the error message received is:
-24920,ERR_BACKUPOP: backup operation was unsuccessful
The backup tool failed with 2 as sum of exit codes.
Unfortunately no further errors/warnings are shown that points in any direction
what's going wrong here.
We start the backup via the following dbmcli-command:
dbmcli -u control,****** -d WDO -uUTL control,****** backup_start BACKData_WDO
(for the time being without xuser entries, first make sure the backup is ok)
The files dbm.ebl, dbm.prt and several others do not show any additional details/hints.
It seems as if the "save data quick" to the named pipe is ok, the sql-code returns "0".
After this the backint for MaxDB should read the named pipe and write it to stage-files,
but backint (for MaxDB) ends with return code 2.
Any idea what might go wrong here?

Lars,
The /tmp/backint4maxdb.err file tells me:
Backint for Oracle was unsuccessful.
(Unfortunately that was all information in this file.)
The backint4ora.in file tells me:
/tmp/stageWDO.0
(looks ok to me, also at the time backint4ora was started the stage file was created with non-zero size)
The backint4ora.out file tells me:
ERROR: incorrect format or option in .utl file (-p)
(this seems as if the -p option is not recognized by the backint4ora executable)
When I run this executable manually as user sdb it shows me the commandline that I should use, including the -p option.
One strange thing I notice is that the order of the options is different from the commandline that is executed.
(in the usage it shows -p as almost last parameter, the command executed has -p in the middle; I will see if I can execute the backint4ora command manually, since I have the stage file available, I have copied it during the process)
The backint4ora.err file is empty.
The commandline of the dbmcli command I execute shows me another interesting error message,
this might also be the source of all problems here.
-24920,ERR_BACKUPOP: backup operation was unsuccessful
Could not get external backup ID's from the backup tool.
I tried to retrieve the external backup id's manually for medium BACKDataWDO, it show me OK without any external backup id's.
I am not sure, but I think this is correct since no successfull backup was created yet with external backup tool.
Can it also be that the parameter "history file" from the initWDO.par file is set wrong?
Currently it is set to "/sapdb/data/wrk/WDO/backint_history_WDO.log" (see above also), but I can imagine
that this should be set to the dbm.knl or dbm.ebf file ??
With kind regards,

SAP R/3 4.7 migration using Veritas PDC solution

Hi,
I would like to do a heterogeneous system copy.
My current environment:-
OS= IBM AIX
DB=Oracle 9i
DB size=6TB
Storage= Veritas Storage foundation suite (Portable Data Container)
Target system:-
OS=HPUX
DB=Oracle 9i
DB size=6TB
Storage= Veritas Storage foundation suite (Portable Data Container)
Instead of using SAP tool (SAPINST,migmon, R3ta) to export/import the SAP system.
Can I make use of the VERITAS -PDC solution? Whereby I will do a snapshot of the Oracle datafile.
And then do some veritas pdc conversion to HPUX . And present the datafile to HPUX (target system).
Is this supported by SAP? What is the impact if SAP say it is not supported method to do migration?
I saw a document say it is not supported, but it is dated 2005.
Thanks.
Best Regards,
CK chai
Does anyone

The first thing you should be aware of:
If you do heterogeneous migrations you must have a certified migration consultant on-site, otherwise you loose support for problem occurring through the migration and for the target system (see http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration --> FAQ).
The only "supported official" way is doing an R3load export and import.
You can use other ways (e. g. also transportable tablespaces with Oracle 10g) but the responsibility of doing that is in the hand of the migration consultant.

Veritas volume manager for solaris 10

Hi All
which version veritas volume manager will support solaris 10 06/06.
can you just update a link for reference
Regards
RPS

Hello,
we are currently using solaris 9 with veritas volume manager 3.5.So i would like to know if i upgrade to solaris 10 06/06.whether i can use 3.5 or not.
Using the Veritas (Symantec) support site, I have found the following document
VERITAS Storage Solutions 3.5 Maintenance Pack 4 for Solaris
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/278582.htm
The latest supported version listed for VxVM 3.5 with MP4 applied is Solaris 9. That means the answer is NO.
I understand that searching the Veritas knowledge base might be tough and time consuming, but it's their product ...

Veritas volume manager on Solaris 10(X86)

is it possible to install veritas volume manager on solaris 10 (x86) ?

You should check the supported operating system matrix for Storage Foundation to see what they support. But yes, Solaris x64 is supported. I don't think they support 32-bit x86.

How to backout a Recommended Patch cluster deployment in Solstice disksuite

Hello Admin's,
I am planning to use the following Plan of action for deploying the latest Solaris 8 Recommended Patch cluster on the production server's i support.My
concern is if the patching activity fails or the application and Oracle databases dont come up after deploying the patch cluster.How do i revert back to system to its original state using the submirror's which i have detached prior to patching the system :
1) Will shutdown the applications and the databases on the server:
2) Will capture the output of the following commands :
df -k
ifconfig -a
contents of the files /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/vfstab /etc/system
metastat -p
netstat -rn
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0
3) We bring the system to the ok prompt
4) We will try to boot the system from both the disk's which are part of the d10 metadevice for root filesystem

Redefine the boot-device variable to reference both the primary and secondary submirrors, in the order in which you want to access them. For example:
ok printenv boot-device
boot-device= disk net
ok setenv boot-device disk backup_root net
boot-device= disk backup_root net
In the event of primary root disk failure, the system automatically boots from the secondary submirror. To test the secondary submirror, boot the system manually, as follows:
ok boot backup_root

Recommended patch sets are and to the best of my knowledge have always been regenerated twice a month.
I think your thinking of maintenance releases. When they generate a new CD image which can be used to do an upgrade install.
They try to generate those every 6 months, but the schedule often slips.
The two most recent were sol10 11/06 and sol10 8/07.

CSM with Veritas HA geographic redundancy fails over without visible reason

Hello.
Cisco Security Manager shuts down and Veritas fails it over to another site, I have no idea why. It is clean installation without elements.
In Veritas engine log I found this:

Eds.log is attached.
NameServer.log is empty.
As we can see from monitor.pl (csm agent script), EDS and NameServer are critical processes to run CSM.
What I should do to prevent such behaviour?

XML Reports end with WARNING Status, Using Virtual Hostname by Veritas HA

Hi,
The metalink note Output Post Processor Fails Due to java.sql.SQLException: Exhausted Resultset [ID 740529.1], is not related to us, we have already verified that. In our case the Application is running on Virtual Hostname and this virtual hostname is taken care by Veritas Library, ACC.
Secondly the FND_NODES also shows the Virtual hostname as the application is configured on Virtual Hostname. So in our case its not seems to be comming from the FND_NODES tables, rather it seems that some of the Java files/class is picking it by the OS command uname -a.
So if we can find that class or environment file of java, we can export the Virtual Hostname as we used it in configuration. Please note that the Concurrent Manager and Application listener are also working fine on the Virtual Hostname, by using the Veritas library.
Solaris:
LD_PRELOAD_32=/usr/lib/secure/libvuname.so
VHOSTNAME=<virtual hostname>
Please suggest.
Best Regards
Ali Ammar.

DiskSuite and Live Upgrade 2.0

I need to upgrade to Solaris 8. In the past I have used Live Upgrade to do so, when I have enough free disk space to partition an existing disk or to use a unused disk for the Solaris 8 system files.
In this case, I do not have sufficient free space on the boot disk. So, what is the best approach? It seems that I would have to:
1. unmirror the file system
2. install Solaris 8 onto the old mirror drive using LU 2.0
3. make the old mirror drive the boot drive
4. re-establish mirroring, being sure that it goes the right way from the Solaris 8 disk to the old boot disk
Comments, suggestions?

I recently built a system (specs below) and installed this card (MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X MS8894, 128MB DDR), and when I try to use Live Update 2 (version 3.33.000, from the CD that came with the card), I get the same message:
"Warning!!! Your Display Card does not support MSI Live Update 2 function. Note: MSI Live Update 2 supports the Display Cards of MSI only."
I'm using the drivers/BIOS that came on the CD: Driver version 6.13.10.4107, BIOS version 4.28.20.05.11. I see on the nVidia site that they have the 4109 drivers out now, should I try those? ?(
I have also made sure to do the suggested modifications to IE (and I don't have PC-cillin installed):
"Note: In order to operate this application properly, please note the following suggests.
-Set the IE security setting 'Download signed ActiveX controls' to [Enable] or [Prompt]. (System default is [Prompt]).
-Disable 'WebTrap' of PC-cillin(R) or any web based anti-virus application when executing MSITM Live Update 2TM.
-Update Microsoft® Windows® Installer"
I downloaded a newer version of LIveUpdate (3.35.000), and installed it (after completely uninstalling the old version), and got the same results. Nothing on my system is currently overclocked.
Help!
