Business Copy won't mount the BC

[Adam Winebaugh]

Here is an example of the script used to make the Busines Copy,
/esslogs/PESS/adhoc/pess_bus_backup.sh

Fri May 16 14:41:40 EDT 2008
+ armcopy -s 23 -x true 00SG140G0082
LUN "23" has been made active.
+ armcopy -s 23 -a false 00SG140G0082
Business copy LUN "23" has been emptied.
+ armcopy -s 23 -a true 00SG140G0082
Business copy LUN "23" has copied data from Parent.
+ fsck -F vxfs -y /dev/vg18/rlvol1
vxfs fsck: Cannot open /dev/vg18/rlvol1: No such device or address
file system check failure, aborting ...
+ mount -r /dev/vg18/lvol1 /bc_essdata
/dev/vg18/lvol1: No such device or address

This last line is the error. This has always worked before, it just stopped working. I have checked everything I know. Can anyone help?

I must also add that I have a "sister" system that is a mirror, and runs the exact same hardware/software, runs exact same script(s), and it does NOT fail on the sister system. The BC has always worked until this weekend. Nothing new has been installed and no changes have been made to any configurations.

nevermind all I found the issue, somehow I lost the entries in the lvmtab, so:

# mv /etc/lvmtab /etc/lvmtab.old
# vgscan -a

# vgchange -a y /dev/vgxx


This solved my issues.
