This issue has been solved. See solution.

all,

a customer has a 2 nodes cluster VCS5.0 with AIX 5.2.
His goal is to go to AIX 5.3 TL9
then we need before to upgrade to VCS5.0 MP1

After upgrading in MP1 everithing fine !
Then migrating from AIX 5.2 to 5.3, here appears the problem : each time the 2 nodes see themselves then one of both hangs...

Because of production, now one is Running and the other is stopped.
if someone has ideas, welcome !

Hervé

Hello, Great that you have

Hello,

Great that you have found solution so fast :-)

Just one suggestion based on experience, AIX is very sensitive on LLT because of AIX native driver structure & LLT integration with it.

In future, any upgrade, just make sure you have corresponding LLT patches, most probably you will find a LLT patch for each version.

many thanks

I do not often use AIX... more Solaris or Linux.

Thanks,
Herve
