Device Configuration Database Lock

Hello guys,

on one of our AIX VIO LPARs I can not remove hdiskpower devices, which seemed to presented to the VIO in an incorrect way and behaviour (not all paths can be seen, pseudo device name is unknown etc.)

Therefor I decided to deattach the hdiskpower device from PowerPath controll by:

1. powermt remove <hdiskpowerXX> ---> did not work

then directly via:
3. rmdev -Rdl <hdiskpowerXX> --> i got this message:

rmdev: 0514-516 Device configuration database lock service timed out.
Please retry the command later.


3. Check of the config_lock led me to:
Code:
# fuser /etc/objrepos/config_lock
/etc/objrepos/config_lock:  15466568 16449626 20316396 21364886 23265418 23724286 29032682 30015688

4. Examing the PIDs by ps:
Code:
15466568      - 647:39 cfgpower
# ps -A|grep 16449626
 16449626      -  0:00 powermt
# ps -A|grep 20316396
 20316396      -  0:00 cfgmgr
# ps -A|grep 21364886
 21364886      -  0:02 chcod_chrp
# ps -A|grep 23265418
 23265418      -  0:02 ha_star
# ps -A|grep 23724286
 23724286      -  0:00 cfgmgr
# ps -A|grep 29032682
 29032682      -  0:00 cfgmgr
# ps -A|grep 30015688
 30015688      -  0:00 cfgmgr

Question:

Is there any way out of this mass, without rebooting the VIOS LPAR?

Sincerely

Tomek

NAME
pseudo - configuration files for pseudo device drivers DESCRIPTION
Pseudo devices are devices that are implemented entirely in software. Drivers for pseudo devices must provide driver configuration files to inform the system of each pseudo device that should be created. Configuration files for pseudo device drivers must identify the parent driver explicitly as pseudo, and must create an integer property called instance which is unique to this entry in the configuration file. Each entry in the configuration file creates a prototype devinfo node. Each node is assigned an instance number which is determined by the value of the instance property. This property is only applicable to children of the pseudo parent, and is required since pseudo devices have no hardware address from which to determine the instance number. See driver.conf(4) for further details of configuration file syntax. EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample configuration file. Here is a configuration file called ramdisk.conf for a pseudo device driver that implements a RAM disk. This file creates two nodes called "ramdisk". The first entry creates ramdisk node instance 0, and the second creates ramdisk node, instance 1, with the additional disk-size property set to 512. # # Copyright (c) 1993, by Sun Microsystems, Inc. # #ident "@(#)ramdisk.conf 1.3 93/06/04 SMI" name="ramdisk" parent="pseudo" instance=0; name="ramdisk" parent="pseudo" instance=1 disk-size=512; SEE ALSO
