Sun Cluster Geographic Edition 3.1 8/05 Release Notes

A Failed Switchover for Hitachi TrueCopy Leaves Pairs Within dev_group With Unmatched Volume Status (6295537)

Problem Summary: The switchover procedures currently documented in Hitachi TrueCopy CCI guide are correct; however, when a switchover fails because of a SVOL-SSUS takeover, the dev_group might result in unmatched volume status which causes pairvolchk and pairsplit commands to fail.

Workaround: To bring dev_group to matched volume status, bring pairs within a dev_group to matched volume status. The commands to be used to bring the pairs to matched volume status depend on the current pair state, and which cluster's volumes the user want to make primary (bring application up on). Refer to the Hitachi TrueCopy CCI guide for Hitachi TrueCopy command set. Then, complete the procedure in Recovering From a Switchover Failure on a System That Uses Hitachi TrueCopy Replication in Sun Cluster Geographic Edition System Administration Guide.
