Re: vgscan errors
vgscan output below. I have recreated the disk devices from backup and by rmsf and recreating them with insf -e.
===============================
# vgscan -av
Creating "/etc/lvmtab".
vgscan: has no correspoding valid raw device file under /dev/rdsk.
Verification of unique LVM disk id on each disk in the volume group
/dev/vg00 failed.

Re: vgscan errors
It should rebuild all your RAW devices that are missing...

Re: vgscan errors
How recent are your LVM patches; specifically the LVM commands cumulative patches? Are you running 11.0 or 11i?
Also, can you show us the output of 'strings /etc/lvmtab' and 'strings /etc/lvmtab.1'?
Also, I know you say that there are no ghost disks, but have you run 'lvdisplay -kv' on one (or all) of the mirrored LVs?
Now that I think about it, what I might do in your situation is to reduce LVs in vg00 to a single copy (no mirrored LVs). Then I would remove the newly installed PV from vg00.
I would also do 'pvremove /dev/rdsk/c?t8d0'.
Then try another vgscan.
I would also dust off the ignite tapes just in case. :-(

Re: vgscan errors
I think you did not remove the broken disk from vg00, but used the replacement disk with the same device file to add a mirror, right?
vgdisplay vg00 then tells you you have 3 disks but only 2 active.
so for each lvol you run lvdisplay -v -k
the -k gives you the "key" which you have to use in order to remove the old disk and lvol extents from the LVM header (since the device file is not unique) the extents will be displayed with "????" instead of current or stale.
i.e you need to use lvreduce -k to remove all those mirrors and when you are through you can just vgreduce -f vg00 to get rid of the dead PV.
that should settle it.
Regards
Bernhard

Re: vgscan errors
Am not a champion in LVM but as i understand this error occurs when a group files are not removed from the non-existant vg's can you please check that once.
Best Regards,
