HP-UX 11.23 – Sustituir un disco de boot del VG00

Hoy me topado con una reliquia. Un HP-UX 11.23 Itanium al que se le había estropeado uno de los discos de boot internos y hemos tenido que sustituirlo por uno nuevo. Además, con mirror por software.

Hacía tiempo que no tocaba HP-UX y, aún menos este tipo de cambios. No se suelen romper tantos discos y, cuando eso ocurre, suele existir mirror por hardware y no por software.

Vamos al grano. El procedimiento para recrear el mirror por software en HP-UX 11.23 ha sido el siguiente:

Procedimiento de sustitución de disco

  • Creamos el fichero con las tabla de particiones que tenemos que crear para el nuevo disco. En este caso, tres particiones, igual que el disco original:
[server01] root:/root # cat /tmp/partitionfile
3
EFI 500MB
HPUX 100%
HPSP 400MB
[snagci01] root:/root #
  • Creamos las particiones correspondientes:
[server01] root:/root # idisk -wf /tmp/partitionfile /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0
idisk version: 1.32

  1. Buenas tardes, quedo muy agradecido por la atención.

    Tengo la siguiente novedad, cuando realizo mount -a

    UX:vxfs mount: ERROR: V-3-26881: Cannot be mounted until a full file system check (fsck) is performed on /dev/vg_home_users/rlv_home_or11gr24. Please refer to fsck_vxfs man page for details.
    mount: /dev/vg00/lvol1 is already mounted on /stand
    mount: /oracle: I/O error

    • Hola, para el filesystem /dev/vg_home_users/rlv_home_or11gr24, te está diciendo que tienes que pasar el filesystem check (fsck /dev/vg_home_users/rlv_home_or11gr24). Para el FS /dev/vg00/lvol1, no tienes que hacer nada. Lo ha montado correctamente. Y para el FS /oracle, hay un problema de acceso al filesystem. Pueden ser mil cosas (corrupción de datos, avería del disco, se ha perdido un disco de la SAN al que no se puede acceder, forma parte de un cluster y no debería estar en el fstab, etc.).
