Resolution

When devices are removed from the server without removing them from Volume Manager first you can encounter this error;

#vxdctl enable

VxVM vxdctlERROR V-5-1-0 Data Corruption Protection Activated - User

CorrectiveAction Needed

VxVM vxdctlINFO V-5-1-0 To recover, first ensure that the OS device tree is up to date(requires OS specific commands).

VxVM vxdctlINFO V-5-1-0 Then, execute 'vxdisk rm' on the following

devicesbefore reinitiating device discovery:

c3t1d94,c3t1d93, c3t1d92, c3t1d91, c3t1d90

To resolve this issue we need to clean the device tree for Volume Manager.

Save yourdmppolicy.info file located in the etc/vx directory if it is present. Also, Ifyou are running VCS, you will have to freeze your server before doing the vxconfigd -k.

#hasys -freeze

#cd /dev/vx/dmp

#rm -rf *

#cd /dev/vx/rdmp

#rm -rf *

#cd /etc/vx

#rm -rf *.info

#reboot -- -r

If you cannot reboot just run this.

#devfsadm -C

#vxconfigd -k -x syslog

Now you cando the vxdctl enable without encountering the error message.
