Attempt to use SmartTier commands fails (2332973)

Last published : Sep 23, 2026
The attempts to run SmartTier commands such as dbdst_preset_policy ordbdst_file_move fail with the following error:
fsppadm: ERROR: V-3-26551: VxFS failure on low level mechanism
with message - Device or resource busy
This error occurs if a sub-file SmartTier command such as dbdst_obj_move has been previously run on the file system.
Workaround: There is no workaround for this issue. You cannot use file-based SmartTier and sub-file SmartTier simultaneously.
