- connected
A connection was established with vxconfigd. This event type is
displayed immediately after successful startup and initialization of
vxnotify. A connected event is also displayed if the
connection to vxconfigd is lost, and then regained. A
connected event displayed after a reconnection indicates that
some events may have been lost.
- disconnected
The connection to vxconfigd was lost. This normally results from
vxconfigd being stopped (such as by vxdctl stop) or killed by
a signal. In response to a disconnection, vxnotify displays a
disconnected event and then waits until a reconnection succeeds. A
connected event is then displayed.
A disconnected event is also printed if vxconfigd is not
accessible at the time vxnotify is started. In this case, the
disconnected event precedes the first connected event.
- more events
Due to internal buffer overruns or other problems,
some events may have been lost.
- waiting ...
If the
-w
option is specified,
a
waiting
event is displayed after a defined period with no other events.
Shell scripts can use
waiting
messages to collect groups of nearly simultaneous,
or at least related,
events.
This can make shell scripts more efficient.
This can also provide some scripts with better input because
sets of detach events, in particular, often occur in groups that
scripts can relate together.
This is particularly important given that
a typical shell script will block until
vxnotify
produces output,
thus requiring output to indicate the end of a possible
sequence of related events.
- import dg groupname dgid groupid
The disk group named groupname was imported.
The disk group ID of the imported disk group is groupid.
- deport dg groupname dgid groupid
The named disk group was deported.
- disable dg groupname dgid groupid
The named disk group was disabled. A disabled disk group cannot be
changed, and its records cannot be printed with vxprint.
However, some volumes in a disabled disk group may still be usable,
although it is unlikely that the volumes will be usable after a system
reboot. A disk group will be disabled as a result of excessive
failures. A disk group will be disabled if the last disk in the disk
group fails, or if errors occur when writing to all configuration and
log copies in the disk group.
- change dg groupname dgid groupid
A change was made to the configuration for the named disk group. The
transaction ID for the update was groupid.
- detach subdisk subdisk plex plex volume volume dg groupname dgid groupid
The named subdisk, in the named disk group, was detached as a result of
an I/O failure detected during normal volume I/O, or disabled as a
result of a detected disk failure. Failures of a subdisk in a RAID-5
volume or a log subdisk within a mirrored volume result in a subdisk
detach; other subdisk failures generally result in the subdisk's plex
being detached.
- detach plex plex volume volume dg groupname dgid groupid
The named plex, in the named disk group, was detached as a result of
an I/O failure detected during normal volume I/O, or disabled as a
result of a detected total disk failure.
- detach volume volume dg groupname dgid groupid
The named volume, in the named disk group, was detached as a result of
an I/O failure detected during normal volume I/O, or as a result of a
detected total disk failure. Usually, only plexes or subdisks are
detached as a result of volume I/O failure. However, if a volume would
become entirely unusable by detaching a plex or subdisk, then the
volume may be detached.
- detach disk accessname dm medianame dg groupname dgid groupid
The named disk, with device access name accessname and disk media
name medianame was disconnected from the named disk group as a
result of an apparent total disk failure. Total disk failures are
checked for automatically
when plexes or subdisks are detached by kernel failures,
or explicitly by the vxdisk check operation (see
vxdisk(1M)).
- log-detach volume volume dg groupname dgid groupid
All log copies for the volume (either log plexes for a RAID-5 volume
or log subdisks for a regular mirrored volume) have become unusable,
either as a result of I/O failures or as a result of a detected total
disk failure.
- change disk accessname dm medianame dg groupname dgid groupid
The disk header changed for the disk with a device access name of
accessname. The disk group name and ID of the disk are
groupname and groupid, respectively. The displayed
groupname and groupid strings will be ``-'' or blank if
the disk is not currently in an imported disk group.
- degraded volume volume dg groupname dgid groupid
The RAID-5 volume has become degraded due to the loss of one subdisk in
the raid5 plex of the volume. Accesses to some parts of the
volume may be slower than to other parts depending on the location of
the failed subdisk and the subsequent I/O patterns.
- enabled path pathname belonging to dmpnode dmpnodename
The path pathname is now available for I/O. It is a path to the
disk/LUN represented by the DMP metanode dmpnodename.
- disabled path pathname belonging to dmpnode dmpnodename
The path pathname is no longer available for I/O. It is a path to the
disk/LUN represented by the DMP metanode dmpnodename.
- enabled dmpnode dmpnodename
The DMP metanode dmpnodename is enabled. At least one of the
paths to the disk/LUN represented by this DMP metanode is now available
for I/O.
- disabled dmpnode dmpnodename
The DMP metanode dmpnodename is disabled. The disk/LUN represented
by the DMP metanode is not available for I/O.
- enabled controller controllername belonging to disk array da_serial_no
The host controller controllername connected to the disk array
with the disk array serial number da_serial_no is enabled. As a
result DMP allows I/Os to all paths connected to this host controller.
- disabled controller controllername belonging to disk array da_serial_no
The host controller controllername connected to the disk array
with disk array serial number da_serial_no is disabled for I/O.
As a result DMP will not allow I/Os to any of the paths that are
connected to this host controller.
- removed disk array da_serial_no
The disk array with serial
number da_serial_no is disconnected from the host.
- added disk array da_serial_no
The disk array with serial
number da_serial_no is connected to the host.
- joined cluster clustername as slave node nodeid
This system has joined the cluster named clustername as a slave
node. Its node ID is nodeid.
Available only if the Volume Manager cluster feature is enabled.
- joined cluster clustername as master node nodeid
This system has joined the cluster named clustername as a master
node. Its node ID is nodeid. If the system was already in the
cluster as a slave, it has now become the master node.
Available only if the Volume Manager cluster feature is enabled.
- left cluster
This system has left the cluster of which it was
previously a member.
Available only if the Volume Manager cluster feature is enabled.
