Impossible to start DUAS on a AIX cluster

Products

• CA Automic Dollar Universe

Issue/Introduction

After a cluster switching on the second member the starting up of Dollar Universe fails systematically.

The cluster resource disk is available.

The universe.log file showing :

23/10/2015 15:41:20: file open error 13: Permission denied (/app/list/di/universe/UNIPRD/data/exp/u_fmca60.dta)

Environment

OS: All Unix
Release 6.x

Cause

Cause: During the installation DUAS was installed with root as an admin user. The user root is the owner of all files. If the supposed DUAS admin user tries a startup, that user will not be able to access mandatory files, and DUAS will not start.

Resolution

Connect DUAS Host with the root user id and make sure that DUAS is stopped.

Then source the environment with

. ./unienv.ksh

then issue the following command:

./uxrights -m assign -a <user>

e.g. <user> default user 'univa'

This command will change the permissions on the Dollar Universe files by setting your user as the owner.

These steps should help with the problem.
