UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Symptoms:
PHCO_31314:
JAGaf49179) SAM displays the following message while
retrieving the disk list:
----------------------------------------------
The Logical Volume Manager shows this device
file, /dev/dsk/Disk_0, with hardware path, , as
belonging to Volume Group, rootdg. SAM has
determined that this hardware path is not
currently active because either the device is
disconnected, or this is not the primary path
to a multiple path physical volume. This
results in incorrect disk utilization
information in the Disk Devices and Volume
Group lists.
----------------------------------------------
The message is displayed in the following
scenario:
On a system that uses VxVM, enter "SAM -> Disks
and File Systems -> Disk Devices" subarea. VxVM
volumes are created with attached disk devices.
The VxVM disks are initialized using enclosure-
based names.
Defect Description:
PHCO_31314:
JAGaf49179) Since the VxVM disks are initialized with
enclosure-based names, they are of the format
Disk_0 instead of cxtxdx. SAM tries to
validate a device file with the name Disk_0
and is not able to trace the device file.
Resolution: The enclosure-based names are mapped to a
device file name before running the check
for validating a device file. Now, the Disk
Devices subarea displays the correct message
with VxVM enclosure-based names.
