If you get a VCS service group offline and faulted

Got an issue where the hastatus summary showed the diskgroup as offline failed;



-- SYSTEM STATE

-- System State Frozen



A eupr0001 RUNNING 0

A eupr0002 RUNNING 0



-- GROUP STATE

-- Group System Probed AutoDisabled State



B commonsg eupr0001 Y N ONLINE

B commonsg eupr0002 Y N ONLINE

B nsr01_sg eupr0001 Y N OFFLINE|FAULTED

B nsr01_sg eupr0002 Y N ONLINE



-- RESOURCES FAILED

-- Group Type Resource System



C nsr01_sg Application NetWorker eup


so tried the following;

hares -display
For each resource that is faulted run:

hares -clear resource-name -sys faulted-system

so in this case

hares -clear NetWorker -sys eupr0001

If all of these clear, then run hastatus -summary and make sure that these are clear. You should then see the FAULTED removed, and just be left with the ONLINE status

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
nsr01_proxy eupr0001 ONLINE
nsr01_proxy eupr0002 ONLINE
^Ceupr0001> hastatus -sum

-- SYSTEM STATE
-- System State Frozen

A eupr0001 RUNNING 0
A eupr0002 RUNNING 0

-- GROUP STATE
-- Group System Probed AutoDisabled State

B commonsg eupr0001 Y N ONLINE
B commonsg eupr0002 Y N ONLINE
B nsr01_sg eupr0001 Y N OFFLINE
B nsr01_sg eupr0002 Y N ONLINE
eupr0001>

If some don't clear you MAY be able to clear them on the group level. Only do this as last resort:

hagrp -disableresources groupname
hagrp -flush group -sys sysname
hagrp -enableresources groupname

To get a group to go online:

hagrp -online group -sys desired-system

However, if this was not the issue (because despite doing flushes, clears and onlines, vcs was stating there was not a problem) - it could be something else, like licenses - I did an nsrwatch on the server and could see an issue with networker licenses;
