Description

Error Message

CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 Some LVM filesystems are mounted on mount points /opt /opt/openv, /var/log/audit

Cause

The installer does a check for mounted LVM volumes that are not part of the rootvg that are also listed in vxdisk list output like below.

The installer basically checks if any of the devices that are used for these LVM volume groups are also listed as devices in vxdisk list output and in that case throws an error and aborts the upgrade.

Resolution

The solution/workaround is to exclude those devices (listed as auto:LVM) from VxVM control. See example below:

root@server2:/etc]# vxdisk list
DEVICE         TYPE            DISK         GROUP        STATUS
ibm_shark0_0   auto:LVM        -            -            LVM
ibm_shark0_0_1 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_2 auto:LVM        -            -            LVM
ibm_shark0_0_3 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_4 auto:LVM        -            -            LVM
ibm_shark0_0_5 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_6 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_7 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_8 auto:none       -            -            online invalid

 

[root@server2:/etc]# vxdmpadm exclude dmpnodename=ibm_shark0_0
[root@server2:/etc]# vxdmpadm exclude dmpnodename=ibm_shark0_0_2 
[root@server2:/etc]# vxdmpadm exclude dmpnodename=ibm_shark0_0_4

 

[root@server2:/etc]# vxdisk list
DEVICE         TYPE            DISK         GROUP        STATUS
ibm_shark0_1_1 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_3 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_5 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_6 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_7 auto:cdsdisk    -            (test_dg)     online
ibm_shark0_0_8 auto:none       -            -            online invalid
