pvcreate problem
I had reconfig LUN size in va7110 with LUN 0 20mb & LUN 1 250gb.Now i have this problem:
#pvcreate-fb /dev/rdsk/c6t0d1 pvcreate: The physical volume "/dev/dsk/c6t0d1" is already recorded in the "/etc/lvmtab" file.
I use sam -> Disk and File Systems want to create vg01,still can't work out...
How to fix it than let me can assign LUN 1 to vg01 ?

Re: pvcreate problem
did not get the real thing out here...
Anyways, ff you have reconfirgured the size why u doing pvcreate a reboot should take new size
[which is ur OS verion].
IF you want to use this LUN in a separate VG, remove LUN from existing VG and then do pvcreate it would work.
As of now this device is present in a VG and hence the problem.

Re: pvcreate problem
My OS version is 11iv1.
Before use command "armfmt & armcfg" to reconfig LUN Size,i rm /dev/vg01/*
Now use pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c6t0d1 or use sam to create volume group,the system show its recorded in the /etc/lvmtab.
Even though i rm /etc/lvmtab,than use vgscan -a -v or vgchange -a y ,still have this problem...

Re: pvcreate problem
>#strings /etc/lvmtab
/dev/vg00
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0
/dev/dsk/c2t2d0
/dev/vg01
/dev/dsk/c6t0d1
/dev/dsk/c0t8d0
So your volume is already on vg00.
You must remove (Export, recreate vg00) it from the existing VG and then do export, pvcreate/vgcreate vg01.

Re: pvcreate problem
Seems to be vg01 was created earlier with va7110 disk and still there after re-allocation.
To redo pvcreate on c6t0d1 , this needs to be removed from lvmtab first , then you can do pvcreate.
To do this you need to export unused vg01 , and try again.
# vgdisplay vg01
# vgexport -v vg01
# strings /etc/lvmtab
- Now check with ioscan for the disk c6t0d1.
- you can pvcreate now, and go with vg creation.
