APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • There are a few occasions where error code 809 may be used
    inside the CCR Quorum management component. Although not user
    actionable, the product was changed to make some note of this in
    mmfs.log instead of, as had been the case, only available in
    GPFS Trace. The intent is to improved RAS in certain situations.
    

Local fix

  • Use "mmlsmgr" before running "mmchnode --nonquorum" to determine
    the current cluster manager. If the node to be changed is the
    current cluster manager, then use mmlsmgr to determine the new
    cluster manager and then, if necessary, run mmchmgr to make an
    explicit choice of cluster manager.

    Benefits of the solution:
    Allows more likelihood of certain problem determination without
    requiring trace enablement.
    
    Work around:
    Use "mmlsmgr" before running "mmchnode --nonquorum" to determine
    the current cluster manager. If the node to be changed is the
    current cluster manager, then use mmlsmgr to determine the new
    cluster manager and then, if necessary, run mmchmgr to make an
    explicit choice of cluster manager.
