I've not experienced this problem before.  A newly-installed disk in
an external disk box attached to a XP1000 workstation running V8.3 in
a small cluster was initialized with no errors.

INIT/

But when I try to mount it clusterwide, I get:

$ mount/sys/cluster/noassist $223$DKB100: RECOVERY
%MOUNT-F-DEVBUSYVOL, mount or dismount in progress on device, VOL$ lock failure

SYSMAN> set e/c
SYSMAN> do show dev $223$DKB100:/full
shows:
Disk $223$DKB100: (ALINDA), device type FUJITSU MAT3147NC, is online, file-
    oriented device, shareable, available to cluster, error logging is enabled.
for all machines except the box it is attached to:
Disk $223$DKB100: (ALINDA), device type FUJITSU MAT3147NC, is online, file-
    oriented device, shareable, served to cluster via MSCP Server, error logging

SYSMAN> do dismount $223$DKB100:
shows "%SYSTEM-F-DEVNOTMOUNT, device is not mounted" on all machines.
So what is generating the DEVBUSYVOL error?

None of the machines are showing it as mounted.  Other disks in the external
disk box seem to be fine.
