Error Message
# vxdg -s init DG_AM_SA_DBA_TST2_async disk1=emc0_0495
VxVM vxdg ERROR V-5-1-585 Disk group DG_AM_SA_DBA_TST2_async: cannot create: Operation must be executed on master
Cause
Syntax error.
This error occurred as the -s switch was used (this system is standalone and not part of a cluster). The -s switch is to be used when creating a shared diskgroup that will be imported simultaneously on multiple nodes of a volume sharing cluster like Symantec's Cluster File System (CFS) or Storage Foundation for RAC (Oracle).
Resolution
Use the vxdg init command on a standalone system without -s .
Applies To
This was found on a Linux platform running Storage Foundation version 5.1 but is a generic error that may be encountered on any supported Operating System (OS) and version of Storage Foundation (Volume Manager).
