some of disks missing to the volume group vgp160pb, vgp160pba and vgp022pb. Please check vgdisplay -v |more and you may see these volume groups saying not active and missing some disks.

Hi,

This could be another reason as well..

This message is generated when trying to open a temporary lun,
and, with the new SCSI probing, has turned into an informative
message only. This should not be output in the general case.
This problem was originally fixed with:

[PHKL_27579/PACHRDME/English]
11.11 SCSI IO Subsystem Cumulative Patch

Note: This patch, as with any patch, may be superseded.Please check for the latest patches at the IT Resource Center (ITRC)

If your system is of 11.11 then it would be better if you check for this patch...

Best Regards,
Prashanth
