Error Message

V-5-1-7265 Unable to resolve duplicate diskid

Resolution

Symptoms
When import, vxconfigd generates error "V-5-1-7265 Unable to resolve duplicate diskid."
And the vxdg reports "import failed: Disk for disk group not found"
Answer/Resolution
For different LUNs having same diskid, use vxdiskadm option 17 sub option 2 to supress one of the LUNs
Or
vxdisk rm OneOfTheDisk
Then,
vxdg import NameOfTheDG
 
If the disk names are different paths to the same LUN, then need to check to make sure the machine has the right version of ASL for the array type installed.
 
Comments
Need to verify using "/etc/vx/diag.d/vxdmpinq /dev/vx/rdmp/name_of_the_disk" whether the 2 disks are different paths to same LUN or real different LUNs.
