Hi Managers,
Problem fixed now. HP support found that POPFREA's kernel system file
contained traces of a TruCluster configuration from an older version of the
O/S which were invalid. In the member where doconfig ran successfully
/sys/conf directory contains a file .product.list which contained the
following entries:
# Registration file which contains a one line entry for kernel layered
products
# The format of each line is as follows. Empty lines are ignored. Any line
# with a '#' as the first character on the line is a comment. Other
# entries have the following fields:
#
# Module Path:Subset ID:Date:Company:Product:Version
#
# .........................................................................
/usr/opt/TCR160/sys:TCR160:010712135759:DEC::
Whereas in member where doconfig failed the /sys/conf directory contains a
file .product.list which contained the following entries:
# Registration file which contains a one line entry for kernel layered
products
# The format of each line is as follows. Empty lines are ignored. Any line
# with a '#' as the first character on the line is a comment. Other
# entries have the following fields:
#
# Module Path:Subset ID:Date:Company:Product:Version
#
# .........................................................................
/usr/opt/TCR140/sys:TCR140:970521161823:DEC::
/usr/opt/TCR141/sys:TCR141:970731092240:DEC::
/usr/opt/TCR160/sys:TCR160:010710172915:DEC::
The reason for the error "Major number 55 requested in stanza.static for
entry ase_lsm is TAKEN" was because Major number 55 was taken by the first
kernel layered product module configured in the .product.list file which was
for TCR140 (an outdated version of ASE for a pre-v4.0d Digital UNIX
version). Simply commenting the first two lines containing the pattern
"TCR140" and "TCR141" allowed the doconfig script to successfully rebuild
the kernel using the correct module for TCR160.

Bobby
