Managing and Repairing Fileset Catalog Files
For example, the following messages result from the START FILESET example in
Step 1 when the OSS Monitor attempts to start the new fileset but must back out
the operation because the command fails:
2001-07-26 13:41:50 \NODE1.$ZPMON TANDEM.OSS.D40 -00003 $A ,
STATE changed from Stopped to Started because of Operator
Request.
2001-07-26 13:41:50 \NODE1.$ZPMON TANDEM.OSS.D40 -00003 $A ,
STATE changed from Started to Stopped because of Automatic
Unmount by OSS Monitor.
3. When you are unsure of the effect of an action on a fileset, use the STATUS
FILESET command DETAIL option to obtain the last internally reported error
information for it. Look up that error in Numbered Messages on page A-38.
For example, this dialog illustrates the condition of the fileset from Step 1:
STATUS FILESET FILESET01, DETAIL
OSS Detailed Status FILESET \PIMA.FILESET01
State.................. STOPPED
MountTime..............
LastError.............. 9
ErrorDetail............ 0
ErrorTime.............. 26 Jul 2001, 13:41:50.392
FsckName...............
NumVols................ 2
Volumes:
$DATA01 $DATA02
The LastError value reported (9) indicates that confusion exists over the state of
the mount point. In this example, the LastError value is the same as the OSS
Monitor error message number (E0009).
Managing and Repairing Fileset Catalog Files
An OSS name server maintains a catalog file for each fileset it manages. These
catalog files require maintenance when:
•
New OSS features require changes to the format of entries in the catalog. This
maintenance is described in Upgrading OSS Catalog Files on page 5-38.
•
Old catalog files need to be moved or removed as part of fileset management. This
maintenance is described in Moving and Removing OSS Catalog Files on
page 5-39.
Upgrading OSS Catalog Files
A fileset created while your site used a previous version of Open System Services can
be used unmodified with the current software. However, filesets with catalog files that
are not upgraded to the current RVU cannot support OSS features available in the
