Opened: Oct 13, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

ASM cannot save sync file after MySQL corruption following forcible restart.

Impact

ASM cannot save sync files. This prevents saving UCS and high availability (HA) sync.

Conditions

MySQL was restarted forcibly, possibly following /var disk partition exhaustion.

Workaround

As a workaround, it may be possible to delete all files under /var/lib/mysql/PLC_ucs and restart MySQL. However, in our experience, once MySQL has been corrupted by forcible restarts and/or disk exhaustion, it is more advisable to reinstall the device from scratch and load the saved configuration.

Fix Information

None
