Description

Error Message

NOTE: VxVM vxdmp V-5-3-0 dmp_indirect_ioctl: Ioctl Failed for 19/0x0 with error  22

Cause

The messages are logged when a disk doesn't support the SCSI Inquiry page as specified by the ioctl system call.   

These messages are harmless because disks are not expected to support all the SCSI Inquiry pages.  It is normal for a disk to report failure to the ioctl when the specified SCSI Inquiry page is not supported by the disk.
