error installing HP-UX

[Wayne Watkins]

installing HPUX 10.20 on a 4gb in a B180l. When it starts to create the volume groups it comes up with an error;
* Extending logical volume: vg00/lvol1 ( /stand )
* LVM: vg[0] pvnum=0 (dev_t=0x1f006000) is POWERFAILED
* Lvextend: couldn't extend tLVM: lost quorum in vg[0], too many PV's missing
Can anyone help.

Verify SCSI termination.

are you cold installing from a coreOS cd?
verify that your hardware is supported.
In the GUI, verify that the disk is selected and identified correctly.
Are you sure of the integrity of the disk?

Later,
Bill

If I have deciphered it correctly the disk address that is failing is c0t6d0 which would imply the typical root scsi address. If that is getting a POWERFAIL message there is most likely some hardware problem that exists. I would check the integrity of the drive, its connections and termination.
