Problem
 

The Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) "hastatus -summary" command shows one or more Service Groups (SG) in "W_ONLINE_REVERSE_PROPAGATE" state.



Error Message
 

W_ONLINE_REVERSE_PROPAGATE



Solution

 
The Service Group is reported with " W_ONLINE_REVERSE_PROPAGATE" state.
 
 
To resolve the issue, run:
 
1. Flush the Service Groups that are not shown in an online or offline state using syntax::
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -flush <service_group-name> -sys <system-name>
 
Example:
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -flush ClusterService -sys test-system1

 
NOTE: Execute the hagrp -flush command on every system associated with the impacted Service Group.

 
2.] Online any of the Service Groups that were affected and need to be onlined:
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -online <service_group-name> -sys <system_name>
Example:
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -online ClusterService -sys test-system1
 

If the above process does not resolve the issue, force stop the cluster and then restart VCS on each node in the cluster.
 
To force stop the cluster, whilst leaving all VCS resources & related applications online, execute the following command:
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hastop -all -force
NOTE: By force stopping the cluster, the above command will not stop any of the running applications or resources, just the HA daemon (had). VCS will not be monitoring the VCS managed resources whilst force stopped.
 
 
Now restart the VCS had daemon on every node in the cluster:
 
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hastart
 
If the Service Group remains in the " W_ONLINE_REVERSE_PROPAGATE" state, please contact Veritas Technical Support for further assistance.
