Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
Look at this:
your new ioscan:
disk 9 0/1/1/0.0.0.0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP IR Volume
/dev/dsk/c9t0d0 /dev/dsk/c9t0d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c9t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c9t0d0s2
/dev/dsk/c9t0d0s1 /dev/dsk/c9t0d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c9t0d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c9t0d0s3
but your lvmtab:
/dev/vg00
/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2
and because of this mismatch vgdisplay shows
VG Name /dev/vg00
VG Write Access read/write
VG Status available
Max LV 255
Cur LV 8
Open LV 8
Max PV 16
Cur PV 1
Act PV 0
But without current command outputs and logs it is impossible to help.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
Torsten,
From my aspect, the os show no difference whether with right dsf to form vg00 or not, only output of vgdisplay -v vg00 look terribly wrong. Of course I could not activate other vgs in the system. My opinion was that vmunix ignored mismatch of real dsf c9t0d1 and c1t0d0 in /etc/lvmtab, and just recognize hardware path set by setboot.
To hard for me to express myself in English:)
regards
Stephen

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
Stephen,
Torsten is correct. Even though the OS was able to boot and activate vg00, it was operating in a state that would not be considered stable. If you did rebuild lvmtab and now have the correct volume in vg00 the vgdisplay should now show the active volumes as 1 rather than 0. If you haven't rebuilt it, then your probably still unstable.

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
I did not realize that there was a problem with this box, until I checked vgdisplay -v vg00, before that checking, everybody assumed it alright. And I did correct it, simple vgexport and vgimport, as soon as I noticed that problem.

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
So then "strings /etc/lvmtab" shows the correct information now? The procedure to rebuild lvmtab is to copy it to the side and run vgscan.

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
In my opinion, one should boot to LVM maintenance mode and issue vgexport&vgimport to reconfigure vg00.

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
Is that what you did, and does lvmtab show the correct disk now?

Re: Discussion: Device special file changed for unknown reason.
However, you should also check the bootconf file if it contains the correct values now.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
