make_recovery error

Hi,
i'm a newbie at HPUX and my problem make_recovery -Av doesn't work correct. The makrec.log says:
vgcfgbackup: /etc/lvmtab is out of date with the running kernel:Kernel indicates 3 disks for "/dev/vg00"; /etc/lvmtab has 2 disks.
My vg00 has 2 disks,this is correct, but the Kernel ...???
Thanks for your help

Rainer

Hi,
I believe James Ferguson posted the "docs" on this problem. Take a look at http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,11866,0x3306670142b2d5118ff10090279cd0f9,00.html

Hope it helps,

Re-build your lvmtab file using

#mv /etc/lvmtab /etc/lvmtab.old
#vgscan -v

to build a new lvmtab file which will update the entries.

Thanks

It this does not solve

just use

#vgreduce -f /dev/vg00
to reduce the missing physical volume links
then
#mv /etc/lvmtab /etc/lvmtab.old
#vgscan

Hi, to all
thanks for the fast response. The problem is fixed, a wrong entry in /etc/lvmtab. Build a new lvmtab, no it's o.k.

Thanks to all
