Explanation
This could be due to the use of a non encrypted password for Sybase Database Administrator.
The VCS Sybase Agent uses the Sybase Database administrator password only during the DB shutdown sequence.
The password must be configured in main.cf file as follows:
Sybase (
SA =
SApswd =
)
If the specified SApswd attribute is correct but is not encrypted, then the above error occurs and a clean is finally called.
Steps:
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/vcsencrypt -agent
Enter NewPassword:
EnterAgain:
Modify the Sybase and SybaseBk resources as follows and supply the encrypted password
# haconf -makerw
# hares -modify SApswd
# hares -modify SApswd
# haconf -dump -makero
