Error Message

Message from Primary:
VxVM VVR vxrlink WARNING V-5-1-3359 Attaching rlink to non-empty rvg. Autosync will be performed.
VxVM VVR vxrlink ERROR V-5-1-10127 changing rvg cvmdatarvg:
        Operation invalid as another autosync is going on

The Error resulted because only one autosync can take place at a time, i.e. one cannot autosync more than one secondary to the same primary at one time

The partial vxprint output below shows one primary replicating to 3 secondaries:

rv cvmdatarvg   3            ENABLED  ACTIVE   primary  2         srlvol
rl to-04-cvr    cvmdatarvg   DETACHED STALE    server04-cvr cvmdatadg to-0102-cvr                                                                
rl to-03-cvr    cvmdatarvg   CONNECT  ACTIVE   server03-cvr cvmdatadg to-0102-cvr                                                                
rl to-05-cvr    cvmdatarvg   DETACHED STALE    server05-cvr cvmdatadg to-0102-cvr
.
.

In order to synchronise the 3 secondaries, they have to be performed sequentially, i.e.
# vradmin -g cvmdatadg -a startrep cvmdatarvg server04-cvr

once completed:
# vradmin -g cvmdatadg -a startrep cvmdatarvg server05-cvr

Unable to synchronise one of the 3 secondaries when running the following command:
# vradmin -g cvmdatadg -a startrep cvmdatarvg server04-cvr
