pvcreate reports invalid argument
pvcreate -f /dev/rdsk/c31t0d1 I get the
pvcreate: writing LVM record: Invalid argument
error.
I get the same error when I try to configure the disk through SAM.
When I run ioscan -fnC disk I can see
disk 264 0/0/10/1/0.201.3.255.0.0.1 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE COMPAQ MSA1000 VOLUME /dev/dsk/c31t0d1 /dev/rdsk/c31t0d1
I have not been able to find a resolution to this problem within any message forums. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: pvcreate reports invalid argument
try:
dd if=/stand/vmunix of=/dev/rdsk/c31t0d1 bs=1024k
If that fails, you have a problem with writing to the LUN, probably a config issue on the MSA.
You could also try:
diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/c31t0d1
and post the resultant output

Re: pvcreate reports invalid argument
I/O error
1+0 records in
0+1 records out
I actually don't perform the configuration of the MSA, a storage group does that. Is there something I can suggest to them?
Thanks

Re: pvcreate reports invalid argument
I have seen this problem on LUNs that were previously assigned to windows boxes and reassigned to UNIX servers.
