VCS ERROR V-16-10051-6012 GenericService:EVSERVER-ENTERPRISEVAULTADMINSERVICE:online:Failed to wait for the service 'EnterpriseVaultAdminService' to start.  Error = 258.

To do this, do the following:

  1. Open the Veritas Cluster Manager and login
  2. Expand the service group for Enterprise Vault
  3. Highlight the GenericService resource and click on the Show all attributes
  4. Look for OnlineWaitLimit attribute and double the value.  This value may vary depending on certain environments.
