Error description

  • When a disaster occurs on a primary site that affects
    the SVC Disksubsystem with a Metro Mirror in place,
    the surviving node running on the secondary site
    will fail to acquire the resource group and the following
    SVC error will appear in /var/hacmp/log/hacmp.out:
    .
    CMMVC5977E The operation was not performed because it is
    not valid given the current consistency group state.
    .
    As a result, all the volumes (LUNs) will be kept in
    read-only mode and subsequent varyonvg attempts
    will fail leaving the cluster in a permanent error state.
