extent size or decrease max_PVs/max_LVs
# vgcreate /dev/vg01 /dev/dsk/c8t0d0
Increased the number of physical extents per physical volume to 17366.
vgcreate: Volume group "/dev/vg01" could not be created:
VGRA for the disk is too big for the specified parameters. Increase the
extent size or decrease max_PVs/max_LVs and try again.
anyone got any ideas how to increase the extents or decrease max_pv/lv?
thanks again guys

Re: extent size or decrease max_PVs/max_LVs
How big is the physical volume /dev/dsk/c8t0d0? The max PV can be increased from its default value of 16 to 255 (maximum). The max LV value can only be decreased but not increased as its default is 255 which is also the maximum. See vgcreate(1m) for details especially its "-l" and "-p" options.
