Hi,

curious....you ran SAM on ora_hp1 and is trying to create a logical volume on ora_hp2???
Pardon, probably something misses me...

Try to just go on command line of ora_hp2 system and run the lvcreate command, for example:

lvcreate -L 200 -n lvol1 /dev/vg01

This command does create a logical volume named lvol1 with size of 200Mb within vg01.

Good luck.

Best regards,
Fabio

Hi,

If it is in SG environment & the VG is shared, it is required to export & import the VG.

Refer to 'man vgexport' for more information.
