Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator"s Guide (5900-1738, April 2011)

Please make sure that CVM and vxfen are configured
and operating correctly
First, make sure that CVM is running. You can see the CVM nodes in the cluster
by running the vxclustadm nidmap command.
# vxclustadm nidmap
Name CVM Nid CM Nid State
galaxy 1 0 Joined: Master
nebula 0 1 Joined: Slave
This above ouput shows that CVM is healthy, with system galaxy as the CVM
master. If CVM is functioning correctly, then the output above is displayed when
CVM cannot retrieve the node ID of the local system from the vxfen driver. This
usually happens when port b is not configured.
To verify vxfen driver is configured
◆
Check the GAB ports with the command:
# gabconfig -a
Port b must exist on the local system.
