Hello all,

I've just upgraded a two GS320 member cluster from v5.1 to v5.1A PK3.
Upgrade went suprisingly well and I've experienced no problems except for
one thing. We daily via cron execute a volsave command to save all the LSM
configuration on the machine. The command gets executed on both nodes of the
cluster. Under 5.1 volsave command saves to a directory such as
/usr/var/lsm/db/LSM.20030129182500.hostname. However the behaviour seems
different under 5.1A and it save it under
/usr/var/lsm/db/LSM.20030129182500.clusteralias. Which means that each node
in the cluster is trying to write to the same directory. I've checked the
man page but I can't see a way I can specify to use hostname rather than
cluster alias. Has anyone else experienced this or know how to resolve the
problem.
