Error Message

 VxVM vxdg ERROR V-5-1-2356 Disk group copy_oradg: upgrade failed:

DG version needs CVM protocol version upgrade

 

Cause

 Upgrade to 5.1SP1 without upgrading the disk group protocol version.  As a result, disk group version upgrade will fail.

Resolution

In order to upgrade the disk group version to 160 (the default disk group version of 5.1SP1), the protocol version needs to be upgraded to 100.

 

vxdctl protocolversion shows the current protocol version is 90 which is version 5.1 protocol version.

 

# vxdctl protocolversion
Cluster running at protocol 90
 
vxdctl protocolrange command output shows this is not the latest.
 
# vxdctl protocolrange
minprotoversion: 90, maxprotoversion: 100
 
The protocol version can be upgraded by running
 
# vxdctl upgrade
 

Once the protocol version is upgraded to 100, the disk group version of the shared disk group can be upgraded to 160 by running vxdg upgrade command (Please refer to vxdg command manpage for command syntax).
