Re: 11iv3 RP8420 server rebooted, root disk missing, booted off alternate, no cannot remove dead PV
To remove a dead disk from a VG you have to use 'vgreduce -f'.
However, your other problem is going to be that the system still thinks that the disk is part of a mirror set.
Here is what I would do:
1) Replace the dead disk
2) Use 'ioscan' to make sure the disk is now alive
3) Run 'vgcfgrestore' on the replaced disk.
4) Run 'mkboot' and 'mkboot -a' to replace the boot areas of the disk.
5) Reactivate VG00 so that the VG sees the disk
6) Run 'vgsync vg00' to resync your mirrors.
