After restart of the vpfsd service, links to the applications are broken

Velocity Help

Issue

The vpfsd service manages all the data of the NFS export path where the backups of the source Oracle Database are stored. Each export path on the Velocity Storage Server contains a link to the applications that are required to run database ingestion and sandbox creation. If the vpfsd service on the Velocity Storage Server fails, the links to the applications are broken.

For normal restarts of the Velocity Storage Server, you do not need to reestablish the links to the applications.

Solution

To reestablish the links to the applications, you must restart the vagentd service after you restart the vpfsd service.

To reestablish application tool links after you restart the vpfsd service

  1. To verify if the vpfsd for an export path is running, on the Velocity Storage Server, type the following command

    ps aux|grep <export path>

    For example:

    # ps aux|grep asm4

    The output is similar to the following:

    root 8079 1 1 Mar30 ? 00:50:37

    /opt/veritas/velocity/vpfs/bin/vpfsd

    --mount _point /mnt/mount_out/asm4/asm4 --meta_dir/vs_meta/meta_dir

    --source_id asm4 --share_name asm4 --log_level information

    --config_path /vs_data/vo10/etc/velocity/vpfsd_config.json

    --allow_other

    If vpfsd is not in the output, the vpfsd service of that export path may have failed.

  2. To restart the vpfsd service, from the Velocity shell menu, select Support > Support > Maintenance.

  3. When prompted, enter the Velocity Storage Server password, and then type the following command:

    elevate

    Root access is enabled.

  4. On the Velocity Storage Server, as a root user, type the following command to restart the vpfsd service:

    /opt/veritas/velocity/etc/vpfs.mnt/<mount point_name>.sh

    For example:# /opt/veritas/velocity/etc/vpfs.mnt/asm4.sh

    To verify that the vpfsd service has started correctly, as a root user type the following command:

    ps aux|grep <export_path>

    For example:# ps aux|grep asm4

  5. To restart the vagentd service, type the following command on the Velocity Storage Server:

    service vagentd restart
