metadb / metaset invalid argument

user9108289May 13 2014 — edited May 21 2014

Hi,

I am running Solaris 10 with Cluster 3.2.

I'm trying to add an new disk to an existing SVM diskset with already a disk assigned, but the related command doesn't work.

Typing the following command:

metaset -s <diskset> -a /dev/did/rdsk/<disk>

I've the following error:

metaset: <hostname>: <diskset>: invalid argument

Please note that trying to do the same operation using another diskset with the same disk, it works fine!

After this failure I discovered that from the "metadb -s <diskset>" output, I've seen that there aren't any database replicas in the diskset.

I've tried to re-add replicas on the existing disk (metadb -s <diskset> -acf 2 /dev/did/rdsk/<disk>/s7, but the command fails with the same output and "invalid argument"

is displayed.

Someone can help me? Any ideas how to recover the diskset and add the new disk?

Thanks.
