vgextend and lvcreate command spend too long time(about 10 minutes)

OS is 11.23,

The LVM cumulative patch is PHCO_40918, 

 

both of vgextend and lvcreate command spend around 10 minutes.

 

Is there any patch to resolve this situation? 

 

 

Thanks!

sorry, the syslog shows the following before I do vgextend and lvcreate: Aug 18 15:43:32 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E0059E8374D0139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:32 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E0059E8374D0139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:35 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E005BE8374D0139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:35 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E005BE8374D0139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:38 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E001C7325570139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:38 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E001C7325570139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:41 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E001E7325570139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:41 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E001E7325570139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:45 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E00207325570139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:45 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E00207325570139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:48 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E0013F526600139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:48 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E0013F526600139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:51 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E0015F526600139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:51 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E0015F526600139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:54 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E0086D668690139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:54 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E0086D668690139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:43:57 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E0088D668690139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:43:57 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E0088D668690139E011 to SPA Aug 18 15:44:00 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Unable to follow volume 600601605EE01E008AD668690139E011 to SPB Aug 18 15:44:00 server1 vmunix: emcp:Mpc:Info: Trespassed volume 600601605EE01E008AD668690139E011 to SPA the vgdisplay output is (after added the PV) # vgdisplay xxglvg01 --- Volume groups --- VG Name /dev/xxglvg01 VG Write Access read/write VG Status available Max LV 255 Cur LV 158 Open LV 158 Max PV 240 Cur PV 83 Act PV 83 Max PE per PV 65535 VGDA 166 PE Size (Mbytes) 128 Total PE 33034 Alloc PE 32822 Free PE 212 Total PVG 0 Total Spare PVs 0 Total Spare PVs in use 0

Re: vgextend and lvcreate command spend too long time(about 10 minutes)

clearly you're having trouble reaching a lun on your storage array.

 

if you issues a "powermt display" do you see all of your adapters?
or if you do "powermt display ports" do you see all paths?

 

i'd check around to see if there's a problem on the array or if some changed altered your zoning.
