I am working on configuring a backup system and in the process of setting up the disk drives with pvcreate I have found that I am missing the pvpath file.
I am missing
/dev/rdsk/c2t8d0
/dev/dsk/c2t8d0
I have all of the others but missing this one. How do I go about creating that device file?
Thank you
David

SolutionCheck it with the following commands:
#ioscan -fnC disk |grep c2t8d0
# insf -eC disk
If you can't find the disks; try reseating the disks again, it may happen disks are not properly placed. Let me know if you see the disks.
Thanks,

Re: HPUX 10.20 missing pv path
ioscan -FnC disk
and it returned all of the disks and device files as expected EXCEPT for the one drive. The drive is lised but it does not have the dev files. The device does show up in sam as an unused device.

Re: HPUX 10.20 missing pv path
Check by ioscan -funC disk
If you find hardware path of this disk , you can use,
#insf -H hw-path
Or
#insf -e
Check below l ink in details,

If it helps, pls assign point.

Re: HPUX 10.20 missing pv path
Pls check the in /etc/lvmtab
strings /etc/lvmtab | grep "device path"
also check the
ioscan -fnC disk
if you are not able to see the missing path then run insf -e it will create the device path
