AIX

Hi there,

I have three servers and I'm puzzled by the oputput I get from lsvg rootvg.

Server 1 : QUORUM: 2 (Enabled)
Server 2 : QUORUM: 1 (Disabled)
Server 3 : QUORUM: 1

All VG are build on 2 PV and are mirroring.

What could cause the number to be different?
Why does Server3 not report Enabled or Disabled?

Was the keyword "Disabled" set with the chpv -Qn

--Peter

the cause of different number is that on server2 quorum check is disabled
if you try

Code:

chvg -Qy rootvg

on server2 the quorum number will become 2
the same on server3 but I dont recommend to have quorum on rootvg
server3 has number 1 thats means its disabled but anyway try

Code:

syncvg -v rootvg

to synchronize the VG

It also depends on wich AIX version you are using.
New standard is off by default for rootvg wich of course is suggested to use.
