The following known issues and resolutions are reported for the September 2008 release of DRD
version A.3.2.1962.
Issue Description
DRD does not handle information about a swap device in the kernel registry services (KRS) if the swapon -s
command is executed prior to a
drd clone command. The swapon -s command specifies the primary swap device to be used at
the next boot.
Issue Resolution
The workaround is to use the swapon -R command, which undoes the effects of the
swapon -s command, and then execute the drd clone command. The swapon -s
command can then be reissued on the clone after it is created and booted.
The following known issues and resolutions for cloning VxVM roots are reported for the September 2008 release of DRD
version A.3.2.1962.
Issue Description
On HP-UX 11i v2 (11.23): cloning VxVM 4.1 and VxVM 5.0 roots requires installation of VxVM patches.
Issue Resolution
Please go to the DRD Downloads and Updates
Web page for download and patch information.
Issue Description
The drd clone command fails on a VxVM-managed system with a root group volume name ending in
another root group volume name. For example, the root volume group names varoptvol and
optvol will cause the drd clone command to fail.
Issue Resolution
The root cause of this issue is a defect in the VxVM vxbrk_rootmir command.
A VxVM fix for this issue is not yet available. Manual changes to the vxbrk_rootmir script
for individual cases can be determined by calling the HP Response Center to be connected with an expert.
The phone number for the HP Response Center in the US is: 1-800-633-3600.
