Error when doing VGSCAN

Hi

We have HP Blade Servers Attached with HP SAN Storage.

I have presented a VDISK to a Server. but when i try to do VGScan on server I get following error.

Operating system is Redhat EL4. Please help.




vgscan output:

Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
/dev/sdb: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error
/dev/sdb: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 214748299264: Input/output error
/dev/sdb: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error
Found volume group "EFGPROD" using metadata type lvm2
[root@SERPPDA01 ~]#



Thank You.

Re: Error when doing VGSCAN

hi,

the presented vdisk from EVA contain some lvm information ??? What did you made ??? Did you migrate a lun ( cdisk ) from another sevrer ???

if yes why you dont use vgexport / vgimport instead of vgscan.
