Invalid LVMREC record

[Richard Hurley]

I am trying to to a vgcfgrestore on my vg15rep volume group and I am getting:

vgcfgbackup: Invalid LVMREC on Physical Volume /dev/rdsk/c4t0d4

I ran a vgcfgrestore on the disk, but I still get the error when I run the backup.

Any ideas?

Hi,

It seems something is wrong either with the device path or the device itself. Could you give a
#diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX
and see , the information of device, proir to this please verify that the device is CLAIMED in the output of
#ioscan -fnC disk
If this is anything other than CLAIMED - then you may have to see the status of Disk/cable/controller.

In a normal case if you do a pvcreate /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX, and then a vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vgoracle /dev/rdsk/cXtXdX it should work.

Hope this helps
Cheers !!!
