I'm using a HP-UX 11.00 and a VA7100.
Need to extend and lvol and the lvextend comes back and tells me:
§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§
lvextend -L 302976 /dev/vg16/lvvg16
lvextend: Not enough free physical extents available.
Logical volume "/dev/vg16/lvvg16" could not be extended.
Failure possibly caused by PVG-Strict or Distributed allocation policies.
§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§
I've add 2 disks devices (/dev/dsk/c30t1d0 and /dev/dsk/c40t0d7), both whit 8Gb and now I want to use this free space.
I'm in doubt about the "Alternate Link" showed on the vgdisplay... Don't know if maybe that's the problem...
Solved! Go to Solution.

Does it say strict under policy?/ If yes, you will have to change it and then proceed. Also is enough fee extends available?? vgdisplay /dev/vgxx

Just want to make sure the 2 disks where added to the same vg and also
vgdisplay -v /dev/vg16 to see if you have enough free PE.

You need to add same no. of disks as they are in that PVG group.

SolutionIm not sure, but if you use policy pvg-strict you should add the new volumes to a (new) pvg. Because of policy distributed i suggest a second pvg.
Try
vgextend -g pvg16-2 /dev/vg16 /dev/dsk/c30t1d0 /dev/dsk/c40t0d7
or edit /etc/lvmpvg.
Then use
lvextend -L 302976 /dev/vg16/lvvg16 pvg16-2
Alternative Link means both of your disk controllers (c30, c40) see the same (physical) disk(s).
You should probably do
vgextend /dev/vg16 /dev/dsk/c40t1d0 /dev/dsk/c30t0d7
too.
Best regards,
Thomas
