IJ22687: SOME VDISKS IN A VDISK SET MAY NOT BE ADDED TO A FILE SYSTEM.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When adding vdisk sets which have member vdisks from multiple
  ESS recovery group pairs to a file system, some vdisks may not
  be added if any of the node classes involved had some, but not
  all vdisks already in the file system.  This will cause a
  message pointing out orphaned vdisks in the file system.
  

Local fix

• Rerun the "mmvdisk fs add" command.
  

Problem summary

•  When adding vdisk sets which have member vdisks from multiple
  ESS recovery group pairs to a file system, some vdisks may not
  be added if any of the node classes involved had some, but not
  all vdisks already in the file system.  This will cause a
  message pointing out orphaned vdisks in the file system.
  

Problem conclusion

• Benefits of the solution: Fixed the code to process all node
  classes.
  
  Work around: Rerun the "mmvdisk fs add" command.
  
  Problem trigger:  The vdisk set contains vdisks from multiple
  ESS recovery groups in different node classes.  Also, some, but
  not all, vdisks of a node class are already in the file system.
  
  Symptom:  Unexpected results
  
  Platforms affected: All Linux OS environments
  
  Functional Area affected: ESS/GNR
  
  Customer Impact: Suggested
