Hi Managers,
We have 2 x AS4100 ASE clustered v4.0F servers.
I successfully installed PatchKit 8 on the first server but I've run into a
problem after installing the PatchKit on our second server. At the doconfig
stage after dupatch had successfully installed all patches it failed with
the error: "Major number 55 requested in stanza.static for entry ase_lsm is
TAKEN".
Some steps I've taken to attempt to troubleshoot this problem but with no
success:
1. Checked that the /usr/opt/TCR160/sys/stanza.static file is exactly the
same with the other server:
# cksum /usr/opt/TCR160/sys/stanza.static [On Both Systems]
2586267542 1403 /usr/opt/TCR160/sys/stanza.static
2. Checked the existence of /dev/ase and it's major number is 55:
# ls -l /dev/ase
brw-rw-r-- 1 root system 55, 0 May 14 20:37 /dev/ase
3. Built a "base-operating system only" kernel from doconfig, and rebooted
again to single-user mode. "doconfig" still fails with the same error.
4. Tested "mv /dev/ase /dev/ase.bak". "doconfig" still fails with the same
error.
5. Tested recreating the /dev/ase and /dev/rase device files with "mknod"
but doconfig still fails with the same error.
Has anybody encountered this problem before?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bobby
