PANIC: SWARM REPLAY: log update failed

We have trying to implement SRM and I setup NetAPP 7.3 simulator on Ubantu . During the setup Netapp assign only 3 disk of size .

These agrr is intall by default when  simulator is installed. These are 120MB*3  disk. Make sure when the installation is completed you add extra disk to the aggr or else you will land up situation which I have stated above.

When you get above error  boot the system into maintenance mode and then create a new root volume. To get into maintenace mode re-run the setup and then “floppy boot” to Yes. And also 4a will intialize all the disks and you will loose data.

I have booted the system into maintenance mode and set the aggr0 (root volume) offline

Now create the new root volume with following command

Reboot the system and run ./runsim.sh . If you have followed all the steps then you should be able to get sim online. I got following error message as I did not followed 4a thing.

root@netappsim1:/sim# ./runsim.sh

runsim.sh script version Script version 22 (18/Sep/2007)

If java is not enabled then FilerView wont work you need to re-install the simulator image.
