Error Code details
V-5-2-1389
Severity: Notice 
Component: Volume Manager 
Message:
vold is not enabled, cannot proceed
Description:

This message is displayed when:

 

  1. you execute the vxdiskconfig command while vxconfigd is not in the enabled mode.

 

  1. you execute the vxdiskconfig command with language localization. The vxdiskconfig script runs the command vxdctl mode and checks its output. The output is in default set language, which might be Japanese and simple Chinese as Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) on Solaris supports. Then vxdiskconfig fails to recognize the output and assumes that vxconfigd is not in ENABLED state.

 

  1. you execute the vxdiskadm command and choose menu option 21 (Get the newly connected/zoned disks in VxVM view). After you choose the option, the system invokes the vxdiskconfig command, and gets either of the above two scenarios.
