Error description

  • BE Support Engineer:  CJ
    Change Team Engineer:  EJ
    SAMP: 4.1.0
    
    Problem Description: When a new relationship is created from an
    IBM.Application resource to an equivalency the top level of the
    equivalency can show OpState=Unknown even though the
    equivalency constituents show normal/online.
    
    Besides the OpState issue, the relationship is also not honorred
    until the next resource validation. E.g. for a new DepednsOn
    relationship, the source IBM.Application resource will not be
    stopped (no force down) in case the supporting target member of
    the equivalency switches to Offline.
    

Local fix

  • Restart the cluster (stoprpdomain, startrpdomain) or recycle
    the Master IBM.RecoveryRM daemon

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    * When a new relationship is created from an IBM.Application
    * resource to an equivalency the top level of the equivalency
    * can show OpState=Unknown even though the equivalency members
    * are all online.
    * Additionally the new relationship is also not effective until
    * the next resource validation. This means e.g. for a new
    * 'DependsOn' relationship, that the source (IBM.Application)
    * resource will not be stopped (no force down) in case the
    * supporting target member of the equivalency changes to
    * Offline.
    *
    * LOCAL FIX:
    * Restart the cluster (stoprpdomain / startrpdomain) or recycle
    * the master IBM.RecoveryRM daemon.

Problem conclusion

  • The internal handling of the RecoveryRM has been adjusted to
    address this issue. Now a new created relationship with an
    equivalency as target resource is effective immediately, and the
    OpState of the equivalency will not show 'Unknown'.
