Changes To LVM crashes system

[Torsten. · Accepted solution]

The other disk is still part of vg00, but anyhow the LVM information is no longer there (must be related to your "changes").

Some add. checks:

# lvlnboot -v
# pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c3t6d0
# pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c3t5d0
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol1
...
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol8


If no longer needed there, try to remove the disk from vg00

# vgreduce -f vg00

check with

# strings /etc/lvmtab
and
# vgdisplay -v vg00

Start over with mirroring by following the appendix in this manual (if needed):

Dear torsten,

i am unable to reduce the volume
vgreduce -f vg00
# vgreduce -f vg00
vgreduce: Couldn't query physical volume "/dev/dsk/c3t5d0":
The specified path does not correspond to physical volume attached to
this volume group
#
