Hi Nejad,

Are you checked the disk using dd ?
#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c6t2d0 of=/dev/null bs=1024k

Thanks,
Aneesh

pvcreate simply tries to write a record to the disk and the disk has failed. You'll need another disk. Check syslog for similar messages.

hi

this may be because of bad disk or zoning problem.check the zoning. and also check the disk is claimed and you can view its size

#diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c6t2d0

you can also verify with stm.

#stm

Hi Nejad,
Check your disk using steps described in the technical paper:
