Operating Systems AIX Interesting Problem! 2 VIOs, One is problematic, assigning disks and resources from the other only Post 302516287 by kah00na on Friday 22nd of April 2011 11:33:06 AM

Did you set the "reserve_policy" attribute on the disk?
Code:
vio1:/home/padmin:# lsattr -El hdisk5 | grep reser
reserve_policy  no_reserve                       Reserve Policy                   True
vio1:/home/padmin:#

If you don't and one VIO server puts a VTD on the disk (assigns it to an LPAR), then a reserve is put on that disk by the VIO server and the other VIO server can't touch it. To change it to no_reserve, you have to remove the VTD, set the attribute, remove the disk (rmdev -l hdisk5), then bring the disk back (mkdev -l hdisk5) and the attribute should be properly set. Then recreate the VTD and have the other VIO server try again.

cfgmgr

cfgmgr(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 cfgmgr(8)

NAME

       cfgmgr - Configuration management server

SYNOPSIS

       /sbin/cfgmgr

DESCRIPTION

       The  cfgmgr  configuration  management server works with the kernel load server (kloadsrv) daemon to manage the subsystems that are dynami-
       cally configurable, loadable, or both. The cfgmgr server starts up automatically when a client (such as the sysconfig command) makes a con-
       figuration  management request.	 Examples of configuration management requests are requests to configure, reconfigure, query, or unconfig-
       ure a subsystem.

       The cfgmgr server allows query operations from any superuser (root login), local or remote.  The superuser on  the  local  system  is  also
       allowed to configure, reconfigure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems.   Remote access to the kernel subsystem configuration is allowed
       through the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file.  System administrators working on hosts listed in that file can also configure, reconfigure,	or  uncon-
       figure  local kernel subsystems.  If the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file does not exist or is empty, no remote users are allowed to configure, recon-
       figure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems.

       If you use the sysconfig -v command, the cfgmgr server displays debugging information to the /dev/console screen. See the sysconfig(8) ref-
       erence page for more information about the -v flag.
