In this post, we will look at one of the common veritas error message which says “Group is autodisabled”.
Lets see the complete error message and its solution.
I. Error Message
# hagrp -online NGEL-osbvip VCS NOTICE V-16-1-50862 Unable to online group NGEL-osbvip on system ngeaix001. Group is autodisabled
II. Solution
To resolve this issue, we need to autoenable the veritas group.
# /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -autoenable NGEL-osbvip -sys ngeaix001
We need to do this for each server in the cluster before running the hagrp -online NGEL-osbvip command again.
III. Cause of the issue.
1. No OSBVIP service running on veritas cluster
2. If there should be one OSBVIP running for this app cluster: Run "hastatus -sum" (issues should be at the bottom of the output)
3. Check the resource status: "hares -state | grep -i vip", and "hagrp -state NGEL-osbvip"
After identifying the CLSxx IP address alias that is missing from inside /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf, we can use ifconfig to re-mount it:
# ifconfig en0 alias 10.56.5.28 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
IV. Check out the status again and bring the resource group online.
We can run "hagrp -online NGEL-osbvip -any" "hastatus -sum" or "hagrp -state NGEL-osbvip" to see if all vip processes are running correctly.
