FSS Disk group creation with 510 exported disks from master fails with Transaction locks timed out error (3311250)
Flexible Storage Sharing (FSS) Disk group creation for local disks that are exported may fail if the number of disks used for disk group creation is greater than 150, with the following error message:
VxVM vxdg ERROR V-5-1-585 Disk group test_dg: cannot create: Transaction
locks timed out
A similar error can be seen while adding more that 150 locally exported disks (with
vxdg adddisk ) to the FSS disk group, with the following error message:
VxVM vxdg ERROR V-5-1-10127 associating disk-media emc0_0839 with emc0_0839:
Transaction locks timed out

Workaround:
Create an FSS disk group using 150 or less locally exported disks and then do an incremental disk addition to the disk group with 150 or less locally exported disks at a time.
