LV Size(Mbytes) 0
Current LE 0
Allocated PE 0
Used PV 0

but it must be all right before.what happend and how can i do?

HELP!

Looks like a new lvol was created but without any extents (Size) given to it. Looks like its ok to me to lvremove it.

I created them all right before,but seemed something wrong last night after a reboot.
By the way,the OS version is 11.11

Hi Wan Bo,

did you check if all needed device files for your disks where created? Check out this command:

ioscan -funC disk

-->> should show you the device files for hard disks.

If device files for disks are missing use insf- command to create them. Of course you can also use SAM for this.

-->> more information man insf (be careful with insf -e)

Allways stay on the bright side of life!
