Table: Troubleshooting LMX and VCSMM warning messages
Warning | Possible causes | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
LMX is not running. This warning is not applicable for Oracle 11g running cluster. VCSMM is not running. | The possible causes are:
| Depending on the cause of failure, perform one of the following tasks to resolve the issue:
|
Oracle is not linked to the Veritas LMX library. This warning is not applicable for Oracle 11g running cluster. Oracle is linked to Veritas LMX Library, but LMX is not running. Oracle is not linked to Veritas VCSMM library. Oracle is linked to Veritas VCSMM Library, but VCSMM is not running. | The Oracle RAC libraries are not linked with the SF Oracle RAC libraries. | Relink the Oracle RAC libraries with SF Oracle RAC.
