Re: Not able 2 extend Volume Group in AIX
Try increasing the vdisk size. Note that:
The size of all disks in a volume group is automatically examined when the volume group is activated (varyon). If growth is detected, the system generates an informational message.
The following procedure describes how to grow disks in a RAID environment:
To check for disk growth and resize if needed, type the following command:
chvg -g VGname
Where VGname is the name of your volume group. This command examines all disks in the volume group. If any have grown in size, it attempts to add physical partitions to the physical volume. If necessary, it will determine the appropriate 1016 limit multiplier and convert the volume group to a big volume group.
To turn off LVM bad block relocation on a RAID disk, type the following command:
chpv -r ny PVname

Re: Not able 2 extend Volume Group in AIX
I am REALLY VERY HAPPY 2 inform that the problem is finally solved.
I am posting this so that in future other people dont face the problem.
The extendvg command reqd to extend the VG's in turn calls 3 other commands named:
1) getlvodm: to retreive data from ODM about PV's LV's and VG's
2) linstallpv: which makes changes in the VGDA's of disk and adds it to the VG.
3) putlvodm: this command updates the records into the ODM.
I dont know but some how extendvg is not calling these commands.
If you execute the commands individually then the VG is extended.
Thanks,
Anand :)
