Please help

SolutionAnd all LDEVs with TID 0 are SMPL (Not paired) whereas other LDEVs are showing PSUS (Pair has been suspended).

Re: pairdisplay error
We added a disk to the primary vol to extend it and then added a disk to the secondary vol to match primary. After that we edit the horc0.conf for primary and horc1.conf for secondary to include target ID's of new disks.
Afterwhich we re-start the horcmgr, then try to do pairresync -g. It is at this point that we get error?

Re: pairdisplay error
Create a new group name for all the newly added LDEVs in the horcm file. This name has to be different from the existing groups (BC1_PRBIDDAT or BC1_PRIN1).
1. Use the following command to check the correctness of horcm file:
# pairdisplay -c -g group_name
2. Check the status with the command:
# pairdisplay -g group_name -fcx
3. Run paircreate to create the pair.
# paicreate -g group_name -vl
[Note: The configuration file does not indicate whether a volume will be a P-Vol or an S-Vol. This is determined by the -vl (local) or -vr(remote) option.]
4. Check the status with the command:
# pairdisplay -g group_name -fcx
5. Once the pairdisplay show the status of the volumes in the group as PAIR, split the pair with the following command.
# pairsplit -g group_name
6. Resync the split pairs with:
#pairresync -g group_name

Re: pairdisplay error
I followed your suggestion and this is what I got.
pairdisplay command just return the same output as the my 1st thread, and paircreate bring this error:COMMAND ERROR : EUserId for HOMRCF : root (0) Fri Aug 13 08:21:46 2004
CMDLINE : paircreate -g BC1_PRBIDDAT -vl
08:21:46-5d2ab-18909- [paircreate] Pairstatus must be SIMPLEX.: local PSUS, remote PSUS, devname prbiddat.1-1
08:21:46-6b770-18909- [paircreate][exit(228)]
[EX_INVSTP] Invalid pair status
[Cause ]:The pair status of a target volume isn't appropriate.
[Action]:Please confirm volume status using the pairdisplay command.
I am stuck, still have a problem. Please help

Re: pairdisplay error
You have got me wrong. Let me put it again:
1. You had some LDEVs defined in horcm file as below:
#dev_group dev_name port# TargetID LU# MU#
BC1_PRBIDDAT prbiddat.1-1 CL1-A 7 5
2. Now you have added some LDEVs. For these LDEVs you need to have a different dev_group as below: (Don't make any change for existing BC1_PRBIDDAT group in the horcm file)
#dev_group dev_name port# TargetID LU# MU#
abcdefgh pr123456 CL1-A 0 0
3. Now when you issue paircreate command issue it only for dev_group=abcdefgh as below:
CMDLINE : paircreate -g abcdefgh -vl
I hope this helps. All the best.

Re: pairdisplay error
I think I am lost now. When you say dev_group what are you taking about, is it not the same as volume group? To me they look the same.
BC1_PRBIDDAT prbiddat.1-1(R) (CL1-A ,12, 5-0)55239 63..P-VOL PSUS, 0 219 W
this disk is one we foind on the volume group already working just fine
BC1_PRBIDDAT prbiddat.1-2(R) (CL1-A , 0, 2-0)55239 293..SMPL ----,----- ---- -
this one is the disk which we used to extend the volume group with.
Maybe we don't understand each other. Do you have a phone number I can posiibly call you and then talk ....
I hope that does not offend you.
