Full Discussion: AIX striped LV - lslv stripe width has wrong value
Operating Systems AIX AIX striped LV - lslv stripe width has wrong value Post 302380521 by Scott on Tuesday 15th of December 2009 11:33:12 AM

Hi zaxxon,

I used odmget/odmchange to update it.

I was about to run savebase as you suggested, but noticed this:

Code:
# lsvg -M data01vg
data01vg
0516-304 : Unable to find device id 00c9f44e00004c0000000103d13ca2e0.1 in the Device
        Configuration Database.

It's the same for every VG (even rootvg!).

In the ODM I see:

Code:
CuAt:
        name = "data01lv"
        attribute = "lvserial_id"
        value = "s"
        type = "R"
        generic = "D"
        rep = "n"
        nls_index = 648

what I suspect should be more like:

Code:
CuAt:
        name = "data01lv"
        attribute = "lvserial_id"
        value = "00c9f44e00004c0000000103d13ca2e0.1"
        type = "R"
        generic = "D"
        rep = "n"
        nls_index = 648

(and it's the same for every LV)

I don't know what happened here, or when. A restore of ODM from an old backup fixed this.

With the ODM looking OK again, I ran savebase, and now need to schedule a reboot.

Failing that I'll back it up, create it anew.

Thanks for the help.


Hi wwwzviadi,
Yes, there's definately 8 disks. Everything shows this (lspv, lsvg -p, lslv -l, etc.)

Playing around, it appears what might have happened (a long time ago!), goes something like:
Code:
# mkvg -fSy scottvg hdisk71 hdisk72 hdisk73 hdisk74
scottvg
# mklv -t jfs2 -y scottlv -S 64K scottvg 1536 hdisk71 hdisk72 hdisk72 hdisk73 hdisk74
scottlv
# lslv scottlv
LOGICAL VOLUME:     scottlv                VOLUME GROUP:   scottvg
LV IDENTIFIER:      00c9f44e00004c000000012593214e8c.1 PERMISSION:     read/write
VG STATE:           active/complete        LV STATE:       closed/syncd
TYPE:               jfs2                   WRITE VERIFY:   off
MAX LPs:            1540                   PP SIZE:        16 megabyte(s)
COPIES:             1                      SCHED POLICY:   striped
LPs:                1540                   PPs:            1540
STALE PPs:          0                      BB POLICY:      relocatable
INTER-POLICY:       maximum                RELOCATABLE:    no
INTRA-POLICY:       middle                 UPPER BOUND:    5
MOUNT POINT:        N/A                    LABEL:          None
MIRROR WRITE CONSISTENCY: on/ACTIVE
EACH LP COPY ON A SEPARATE PV ?: yes (superstrict)
Serialize IO ?:     NO
STRIPE WIDTH:       5
STRIPE SIZE:        64k
DEVICESUBTYPE : DS_LVZ

Didn't know it was possible!

Thanks.

postfix-add-policy

POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)					      System Manager's Manual					     POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)

NAME

       postfix-add-policy - add policy service to Postfix master.cf

SYNOPSIS

       postfix-add-policy [policy name...] [username...] [argv...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  postfix-add-policy(8)  command  adds  an  smtp  policy server named policy name running using username and called as argv to etc/post-
       fix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP policy servers such as postgrey or postfix-policyd-spf-perl.  The configuration is based on
       the Postfix SMTPD_POLICY_README.  Adminstrators should verify it is appropriate for their requirements.

       The original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/postfix to make it possible to revert changes easily.

       Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.

DIAGNOSTICS

       If the given policy name  already appears in the master.cf, a message will be printed to standard out and master.cf will not be modified.

ENVIRONMENT

       MAIL_CONFIG
	      Directory with Postfix configuration files.

	      The  postfix-add-policy(8)  command  should  use	this, but it currently doesn't.  It is hard coded to /etc/postfix.  This should be
	      changed.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS

       None

FILES

       /etc/postfix/master.cf
