/opt/perf/bin/ovpa restart

perfalarm was still stopped.

From "/var/opt/perf/status.perfalarm" saw the issue: Metric 'PROC_DISK_PHYS_IO' is undefined. ("/var/opt/perf/alarmdef", near line - 170)

/opt/perf/bin/perfalarm : 05/21/19 04:21:16 ERROR: Errors found in the alarmdef file. (AG1-53)

Perhaps we should parse the alarmdef as a pre-task before patching, so we cannot be blamed that the perfalarm daemon is not started after the reboot (due to the patching).

Noticed in the log the following:

2019-07-10 05:34:02 Including prep/hp/43_check_perfalarm.sh
2019-07-10 05:34:08 WARNING: /var/opt/perf/alarmdef contains errors - see below
2019-07-10 05:34:08 Including prep/hp/45_check_serviceguard.sh
2019-07-10 05:34:09 Cluster CLRAUX004 (version A.11.20.00.01 - latest patch PHSS_44549) is up

The alarmdef.err file was not cat-ted in the log, albeit the file exists.

in script scripts/prep/hp/43_check_perfalarm.sh: cat $VAR_DIR/$DS/alarmdef.err >> $LOGFILE should become cat $VAR_DIR/$DS/alarmdef.err >&2
