Description

Error Message

vxvm vxassist error v-5-1-10042 subvolumes have inconsistent log lengths

Resolution

vxvm vxassist error v-5-1-10042 subvolumes have inconsistent log lengths
 
This error message denotes log plexes of different sizes within a layered-volume's subvolumes.
 
 
For example, the following command generates the error:
# vxresize -g trentedg bpwi005_u3 +3g sd2p4 sd3p4
VxVM vxassist ERROR V-5-1-10042 Subvolumes have inconsistent log lengths. Please provide the loglen for the grow operation.
VxVM vxresize ERROR V-5-1-4703 Problem running vxassist command for volume bpwi005_u3, in diskgroup trentedg
 
You can find the correct loglen paramter by doing the following:
 
# vxprint -g trentedg -xmhsr | grep log_len
 
you will have values of varying lengths, but the largest size should be used: log_len=1056

Here is the correct syntax
# vxresize -g trentedg bpwi005_u3 +3g sd2p4 sd3p4 loglen=1056
