The migrations were successful for the most part, but we did encounter one issue that took a little time to resolve. The customer was using nimadm to migrate. This process worked fine, however, on a couple of systems a strange error was encountered after the migration. The LPAR was booted into AIX 6.1 and everything came up fine. The applications were started and users started accessing the system. It was several days later, when the AIX adminis

The AIX FC adapter driver is trying to map an I/O buffer for DMA access, so the FC adapter can read or write into the buffer. The DMA mapping is done by making a request to the PCI bus device driver. The PCI bus device driver is saying that it can't satisfy the request right https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/cgaix/entry/troubleshooting_aix_hdisk_configuration_errors now. There was simply too much IO at that moment, and the adapter couldn't handle them all. When the FC adapter is configured, we tell the PCI bus driver how much resource to set aside for us, and it may have gone over the limit. It is therefore recommended to increase the max_xfer_size on the fibre channel devices. It depends on the http://www.aixhealthcheck.com/blog?topic=16 type of fibre channel adapter, but usually the possible sizes are: 0x100000, 0x200000, 0x400000, 0x800000, 0x1000000 To view the current setting type the following command: # lsattr -El fcsX -a max_xfer_size Replace the X with the fibre channel adapter number. You should get an output similar to the following: max_xfer_size 0x100000 Maximum Transfer Size True The value can be changed as follows, after which the server needs to be rebooted: # chdev -l fcsX -a max_xfer_size=0x1000000 -P Topics: AIX, SDD, Storage Area Network, System Administration↑Method error when running cfgmgrIf you see the following error when running cfgmgr: Method error (/usr/lib/methods/fcmap >> /var/adm/essmap.out): 0514-023 The specified device does not exist in the customized device configuration database. This is caused when you have ESS driver filesets installed, but no ESS (type 2105) disks in use on the system. Check the type of disks by running: # lsdev -Cc disk | grep 2105 If no type 2105 disks are found, you can uninstall any ESS driver filesets: # installp -u ibm2105.rte ibmpfe.essutil.fibre.data ibmpfe.essutil.rte Topics: AIX, EMC, Installation, PowerHA / HACMP, Storage Area Network, System Administration↑
