From today we have a strange problem adding a filesystem on a previously defined logical volume. The logical volume is of type JFS2. We receive the following error :

j2_logform: failed in Stat(1)
rmlv: Logical volume loglv02 is removed.

What could be the problem ?

Looks like you have no jfs2log although I seem to recall that should be created automatically if required - it does sound like maybe there are some gremlins here and a support call could be in order.

In the meantime you could try with an inline log and see if that works:

To the mkfs command add -o log=INLINE and see if that works.

Normally a JFS2LOG is created automatically, but this is just the problem.
We 've tried all other options, but no result.

No errors in the errorlog, no other messages.

The creation of this FS is very urgent.

If the inline option is not working then please raise a support call with IBM and get a snap to them to investigate.

Hi,

the logform is not the problem, you are the problem!

Where is the mkfs command and options you have typed in? (or smitty.log snippet)
Did you say, this is urgent?

I don't think so!

Could you please provide the snapshot for the following command. So that I can have a look what you have there.

lsvg <vgname> ==== > To see the pp size
#lsvg -l <vgname> ==== > To check the LV/logLV status.
