VxVM vxdmpadm ERROR V-5-1-14800 Given operation is supported only for paths which are claimed as JBOD
Cause
Functionality was removed for non-JBOD arrays.
Resolution
To achieve the desired effect of modifying a path's attribute to "active" in 5.1 - the following sequence of commands are necessary:
bash-3.00# modinfo | grep vx
25 1325870 4d358 328 1 vxdmp (VxVM 5.1 DMP Driver)
27 7be00000 1f8df8 329 1 vxio (VxVM 5.1 I/O driver)
29 7bfda980 d38 330 1 vxspec (VxVM 5.1 control/status driver)
bash-3.00# vxdmpadm setattr path c2t5006016830602E22d0s2 pathtype=active
VxVM vxdmpadm ERROR V-5-1-14530 specific attribute for the path already exists
From the Volume Manager Administration Guide : https://sort.Veritas.com/public/documents/sfha/5.1sp1/solaris/productguides/pdf/vxvm_admin_51sp1_sol.pdf Pg 193
In the "Setting the attributes of the paths to an enclosure"
active: Changes a standby (failover) path to an active path.
Thus the following commands have the desired effect of changing the pathtype attribute to active:
bash-3.00# vxdmpadm setattr path c2t5006016830602E22d0s2 pathtype=standby
bash-3.00# vxdmpadm setattr path c2t5006016830602E22d0s2 pathtype=active
Applies To
Volume Manager version 5.1 and higher.
