(CLARiiON only): Linux Navisphere Naviagent/CLI limitation with

VERITAS Volume Manager v3.2 on CLARiiON

The Linux Navisphere Agent holds open the devices to be used by

VERITAS Volume Manager v3.2 during the initialization and

installation of the CLARiiON devices. When this occurs, the message

Devices busy or in use is reported.

The issue with the Navisphere Agent and VERITAS Volume Manager

v3.2 can occur on initialization and installation of the VxVM, as well

as on subsequent reboots.

lling and Configuring the HBA and Driver

Here is an example of the error reported during vxinstall:

If the devices were successfully partitioned during the installation,

you might also run into an issue after subsequent reboots where the

VxVM's

rootdg becomes unavailable. You will receive errors when

trying to issue VxVM commands; this is a result of the configuration

daemon (

vxconfigd) not running, and can happen if the Navisphere

host agent is running. To resolve the problem:

The Naviagent/CLI RPM may be removed from the system after it

has been used for the initial set-up and registration of the host on the

CLARiiON system.

In order to remove the RPM, stop the Naviagent service and then

remove the RPM package. For example:

/etc/init.d/naviagent stop

rpm -ev naviagentcli-6.20.0.2.59-1
