Restarting volumes after recovery when some nodes in the cluster become unavailable

If some of the nodes in a cluster fail to start after all the nodes in the cluster are rebooted and if one of the volumes become unavailable, other volumes in the cluster may also fail to start after recovery. For example, consider a configuration of three nodes where node A and node B become available after reboot while node C fails to start. If node C has a volume that is unavailable, then vxrecover fails to start the other volumes too.

To resolve the issue, manually start the volumes using the following command:

# vxvol -g diskgroup start volume_name
