.."vgcreate: Cannot open the control file /dev/vg10A/group"
My "maxvgs" isn't set, but it defaults to "10". I'm using 1.
+ mkdir /dev/vg10A
+ mknod /dev/vg10A/group c 64 0x010000
+ vgcreate -p 100 vg10A /dev/dsk/c7t0d1
vgcreate: Cannot open the control file "/dev/vg10A/group":
No such device
What is my problem?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Review your mknod command and make sure that you are not making a typo mistake.
Hope this helps.

I removed the directory and did it again without the typo and everything was fine.

The command line seems to be just fine. I can only suggest you to retry the commands

Re: vgcreate: Cannot open the control file "/dev/vg10A/group" ??
What i suggest you is just run this command:
#cd /dev
#find ./ -name group -print
See how many group files you get and compare there minor addresses.
As your mknod command shows it is: 0x010000
Now last four digits will be always 0 but first two should be unique for each VG.
I think there is the problem.

Re: vgcreate: Cannot open the control file "/dev/vg10A/group" ??
When I went over everything again, at your suggestions "ll /dev/*/group", I found the old reference with the 20 minor number.
Thanks.
