I am running AIX 5.3 TL8. After a disk failure, one of my mirrored application volumegroups went down. Unfortunately we have quorum switched on on this VG and the defective disk holds the majority.
I have set MISSINGPV_VARYON to TRUE and tried a forced varyon but it's still failing. I cannot switch off quorum while the VG is not varied on - and I desperately need the VG up and running. Does anyone know how I can get my vg back up and running ?

Thank you and regards

I'm trying to extract all the description fields from a MIB file which contain multiple instances of the following text:

Code:
        ENTERPRISE compaq
        VARIABLES  { sysName, cpqHoTrapFlags, cpqSsBoxCntlrHwLocation,
                    cpqSsBoxCntlrIndex, cpqSsBoxBusIndex, cpqSsBoxVendor,
                    cpqSsBoxModel, cpqSsBoxSerialNumber, cpqSsBoxFanStatus }
        DESCRIPTION
          "Storage System fan status change.

            The agent has detected a change in the Fan Status of a storage
            system.  The variable cpqSsBoxFanStatus indicates the current
            fan status.

            User Action: If the fan status is degraded or failed, replace
            any failed fans."

              --#TYPE "Fan Status Change (8026)"
Ideally I need to search through the document, and for each instance of 'DESCRIPTION' found, I need to extract the text found immediately after it in quotes, and join them onto a single line. So for example the above would produce something like:

Code:
Storage System fan status change. The agent has detected a change in the Fan Status of a storage system.  The variable cpqSsBoxFanStatus indicates the current fan status. User Action: If the fan status is degraded or failed, replace any failed fans.
Each instance should be on a seperate line. I'm getting nowhere with this, as my grasp of sed/awk is basic to say the least.

If someone could help me out here, it would literally save me hours or even days in monotonous work!

I have a requirement as below

I need find for a string in a log file and once i found that string i need to send a mail.Thsi can be done thru grep and mailx cmnd.

Here once i found the string i need to send last 50 lines(up) from where string found.

Actually they require to find out the user name which may be available before 50 lines.

One more thing this script will run every 15 min , i am thinking how to handle if there are multiple cases of these failures

any thoughts or code will be appreciated

Thanks
