How to Clear a Start_failed Resource State by Disabling and Enabling a Resource

Perform this procedure from any cluster node.

Before You Begin

Ensure that you have the name of the resource that you are disabling and enabling.

1. On a cluster member, assume the root role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.
2. Disable and then enable the resource.

   # clresource disable resource
   # clresource enable resource

   resource

   Specifies the name of the resource.

3. Verify that the resource has been disabled and enabled and that the Start_failed resource state is cleared.

   # clresource status

   The output from this command indicates the state of the resource that has been disabled and re-enabled.

Example 2-27  Clearing a Start_failed Resource State by Disabling and Enabling a Resource

This example shows how to clear a Start_failed resource state that has occurred on the rscon resource by disabling and enabling the resource.

1. Verify that the resource is in the Start_failed resource state.

   # clresource status
   
   === Cluster Resources ===
   
   Resource Name       Node Name       Status        Message
   --------------      ----------      -------        -------
   rscon               phys-schost-1   Faulted       Faulted
                       phys-schost-2   Offline       Offline
   
   hastor              phys-schost-1   Online        Online
                       phys-schost-2   Offline       Offline

2. Disable and re-enable the resource.

   # clresource disable rscon
   # clresource enable rscon

3. Verify that the resource is re-enabled and that the Start_failed resource status is cleared.

   # clresource status
   
   
   === Cluster Resources ===
   
   Resource Name        Node Name       Status        Message
   --------------       ----------      -------       -------
   rscon                phys-schost-1   Online        Online
                        phys-schost-2   Offline       Offline
   
   hastor               phys-schost-1   Online        Online
