Serial Split brain error (V-5-1-10127) after adding a disk to an existing diskgroup

Solution



If a disk is removed from a diskgroup by mistake and when we try to add it back into the disk group, we get an error about a split brain condition. This is because the disk that was accidentally removed still has a ssbid in the private region. The solution is to run the following command to override the ssbid and add the disk back in to the diskgroup.
# vxdg -g mydg -o overridessb adddisk mydg01=c5t0d0
