Uninstall native MPIO driver on AIX

Hi,

I was trying to uninstall the native MPIO driver on the AIX 6.1 machine we have in our lab and ran into a whole bunch dependent filesets initially. I deleted the disks, fcsX, fscsiX, fcnetX and tried again, but ran into the same error.

Subsequently, I figured out that the OS disks in this machine were also being managed by MPIO. SO, how do i remove the fileset?

Any help is appreciated.

NAME
advfs_err - Lists and describes error messages DESCRIPTION
This following list provides the error number and a brief description of the error: EHANDLE_OVF Out of memory. EINVALID_HANDLE The access structure handle is out of range. E_DOMAIN_PANIC This is an internal AdvFS error that occurs when an AdvFS routine fails due to the domain already being paniced. The error propa- gates to the user as E_IO. EDUP_VD The volume is already in use by a domain. EBAD_VDI The specified volume index is not a valid index in the domain. ENO_SUCH_DOMAIN The specified domain does not exist. ENO_SUCH_TAG The bitfile does not exist. ENO_MORE_DOMAINS The maximum number of file domains are active; cannot activate another file domain. EBAD_DOMAIN_HANDLE The specified domain handle is not valid. E_PAGE_NOT_MAPPED The specified file page is not allocated and does not exist. ENO_XTNTS An advfs internal error when opening a file causes file storage to be inaccessible. EBAD_TAG The file tag is not what was expected. EXTND_FAILURE Out of extents to describe disk blocks. ENO_MORE_BLKS The domain is out of disk space. ENOT_SUPPORTED The requested function is not currently supported. EBAD_PARAMS Invalid parameters were passed to the kernel. The likely cause is that the command or utility belongs to a previous version of the product, while the system is running a later version. EBMTR_NOT_FOUND The file metadata was not found. ETOO_MANY_SERVICE_CLASSES Service class array overflow. EBAD_SERVICE_CLASS The disk service class does not match the service class array entry. ESERVICE_CLASS_NOT_FOUND The requested service class does not exist. ESERVICE_CLASS_NOT_EMPTY There is an attempt to delete a service class that still has a disk in it. EBAD_FTX_AGENTH Invalid transaction identification. EBAD_PAR_FTXH Invalid parent transaction handle. EFTX_TOO_DEEP Transactions are nested too deeply. EBAD_FTXH Invalid transaction handle. EBAD_STO_DESC The storage descriptor for the storage requested is invalid. ENO_MORE_MEMORY The file system (advfs) ran out of memory. ENO_MORE_MCELLS A file descriptor could not be allocated. The system is most likely out of disk space. EALREADY_ALLOCATED Attempt to add storage to a file at a specified page offset and the page at that offset already exists. E_NO_MORE_LOG_DESC Too many threads are reading the transaction log. E_CANT_CREATE_LOG There was a failure during log initialization. E_VOLUME_COUNT_MISMATCH The number of volumes in /etc/fdmns/domain_name does not match the number of volumes in the BMT. E_LOG_EMPTY There are no transactions in the log. E_LOG_FULL There is no more room for transactions in the log. E_INVALID_REC_ADDR The log entry has an invalid LSN. E_BAD_CLIENT_REC_ADDR No such log entry exists. E_CANT_ACCESS_LOG An error occurred while creating the file domain transaction log, initializing the file domain transaction log, or both. Since you cannot use the file domain, you must recreate it. E_DOMAIN_NOT_ACTIVATED The file domain is not active; it must be active to perform the requested function. E_DOMAIN_NOT_CLOSED Some thread is still accessing the domain during domain activation. E_CANT_DISMOUNT_VD1_ACTIVE_DOMAIN Dirty buffers prevent the fileset from being dismounted. E_BAD_VERSION The command or utility version does not match the advfs kernel version. See EBAD_PARAMS (-1042). E_VD_BFDMNID_DIFF The volume has the wrong domain ID. E_CANT_FIND_LOG_END There is an error in finding the end of the log. E_BAD_MCELL_LINK_SEGMENT A file's primary mcell has a nonzero linkSegment. E_VD_DMNATTR_DIFF Some of the disks listed in fdmns directory for the file domain do not belong to the file domain. The fdmns directory entry for this file domain is invalid. E_MUST_BE_ROOT You must have root privilege to perform the requested function. E_TAG_EXISTS Specified tag to use next already is in use. E_DOMAIN_ALREADY_EXISTS The specified file domain already exists. E_NO_SUCH_BF_SET The specified fileset does not exist. E_BAD_BF_SET_HANDLE The specified bitfile set handle is invalid. E_TOO_MANY_BF_SETS The maximum number of filesets are mounted. Cannot mount the fileset. E_TOO_MANY_ACCESSORS The fileset is active (mounted). The fileset must be inactive (unmounted) to perform the requested function. E_NOT_ENOUGH_DISKS There is no more room on the disks in the selected service class. E_BAD_DEV The file domain volume is an invalid device. E_ADVFS_NOT_INSTALLED The file system (advfs) is not installed or it is installed but the new kernel (vmunix) is not currently running; in the latter case, you need to reboot the system to complete the advfs installation. E_READ_ONLY The file set is read only. E_TOO_MANY_CLONES The specified fileset has the maximum number of clone filesets. You cannot create another clone fileset. E_OUT_OF_SYNC_CLONE The clone file is no longer correct due to running out of disk space during a copy on write. E_HAS_CLONE The original fileset has a clone fileset. The original fileset must not have a clone fileset to perform the requested function. E_TOO_MANY_BITFILES The number of files in the fileset has exceeded the quota. E_TOO_MANY_BLOCKS The number of disk blocks used by a fileset has exceeded the quota. E_QUOTA_NOT_ENABLED The quota type is not enabled. E_IO I/O error detected. E_NO_MORE_DQUOTS Out of memory.

E_BLKOFFSET_NOT_PAGE_ALIGNED During migration, a disk block offset in an extent is not page aligned. E_CANT_MIGRATE_HOLE An attempt to migrate a sparse file page range and all the pages in the range do not exist. E_NOT_OWNER The user, who is not the owner of the AdvFS resource, has attempted an AdvFS operation, such as changing an AdvFS fileset name. E_MIGRATE_IN_PROGRESS An attempt to migrate a file failed because another thread is already migrating the file. Only one active migrate is allowed for a specified file. E_INVALID_FS_VERSION The installed version of advfs is not compatible with the on-disk file domain. E_INVALID_ADVFS_STRUCT The on-disk file domain structures are invalid. E_PAGE_HOLE The page offset specified for the file is within a sparse file hole. E_TOO_MANY_VIRTUAL_DISKS The maximum number of volumes per domain has been reached. ENO_NAME The file system (advfs) cannot generate the path name of a file because the original path name has been deleted. EDIR_NOT_ADVFS A trashcan operation was attempted on a non-advfs directory. EUNDEL_DIR_NOT_ADVFS A user attempted to use a non-advfs directory for a trashcan. EDUPLICATE_DIRS A user attempted to attach a directory to itself as a trashcan. EDIFF_FILE_SETS A user attempted to attach a trashcan to a directory in a different fileset. A trashcan must be in the same fileset as the direc- tory. E_BAD_MAGIC The specified disks do not contain a valid advfs file domain. E_BAD_PAGESIZE An advfs internal error when opening a file causes the file storage to be inaccessible. E_NO_DMN_VOLS The file domain contains no volumes. E_BAD_TAGDIR There is a corrupted page in the tag directory. E_ALREADY_SWITCHING_LOGS A request to switch log volumes was made to a domain that is in the process of switching log volumes. E_NO_UNDEL_DIR A user attempted to remove a trashcan from a directory that has no trashcan. E_QUOTA_NOT_MAINTAINED The quota type is not maintained. E_BMT_NOT_EMPTY An attempt to remove a volume failed because the contents of the inode table could not be moved off of the volume. E_ROOT_TAGDIR_ON_VOL An attempt to remove a volume failed because the root tag directory is located on the specified volume and could not be moved off of the volume.

E_ALREADY_STRIPED An attempt to stripe a file that is already striped. E_NO_CLONE_STG An attempt to migrate a clone but the clone has no storage of its own. E_BAD_PAGE_RANGE The specified page range is not valid. E_INVOLUNTARY_ABORT A migrate operation has been aborted by another thread. For example, a remove volume operation can cause a file's migrate to abort. E_RMVOL_ALREADY_INPROG A remove volume operation on a volume in the specified domain is already active. There can only be one active remove volume opera- tion per domain. SEE ALSO
