Hi,
I have an existing cluster with an existing package. I wish to insert a new package, using a new volume group. However I wish to use the existing physical disks for the new volume group. I.e. I will have the same physical disk included in two volume groups.
when I give the command to create the new volume group, I get an error
mdtias2 (root) /dev/vg_NEW (TI) # vgcreate vg_NEW /dev/dsk/c4t4d0
Increased the number of physical extents per physical volume to 8683.
vgcreate: The physical volume "/dev/dsk/c4t4d0" is already recorded in the "/etc/lvmtab" file.
because I assume it is already used by vg_MDSO :
VG Name /dev/vg_MDSO
VG Write Access read/write
VG Status available, exclusive
