I've seen versions of unix where there is a kernel parameter limit on the number of mounts allowed, but cannot find that parameter for HP-UX 10.20 and 11.00... Any more info you can give?

Just do a bdf and check whether the volume is mounted.

IF not check whether you have duplicated minor number for the volume

Just do a

#ll /dev/vg_name

REvert

Hi,

Very clear error volume is already mounted you can use LOSF to mount same volume twice.

Or you may have duplicate minor number.

You verify that you don't use the same minor number for another VG:
ls -l /dev/vg*/group
