Set “AdvfsIORetryControl” to “1”
During AdvFS domain replication operations, certain recoverable events might
generate SCSI CAM driver errors. These errors are recoverable if
“AdvfsIORetryControl” is not set to the default value (0). The default setting does not
attempt retries and can result in a domain panic. To prevent domain panic, set the
“AdvfsIORetryControl” parameter to a value greater than “0.” HP recommends setting
this parameter to “1.”
Check the current “AdvfsIORetryControl” setting using the following command:
/sbin/sysconfig -q advfs AdvfsIORetryControl
Change the setting using the following command:
/sbin/sysconfig -r advfs AdvfsIORetryControl=nn
Where “nn” equals the number of AdvFS retries.
This particular problem is described further in Quality Assurance Review (QAR)
93940 and will be corrected in a future patch to the Tru64 UNIX operating system.
