Quorum not Present, or Physical volume missing

[Sajid_1]

Again,

Another thing is this type error comes when two VGs claim ownership for the same disk. Make sure that each VG has a unique drive in the lvmtab file:
# strings /etc/lvmtab.

Another little complicated way is to override the quorum check:
# vgchange -a y -q n /dev/vg05

IMPORTANT- now see the outputs. Check this works and if yes, then you can restore the correct VG information from the new config file created:
# vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg05 /dev/rdsk/c3t3d0
# vgchange -a y /dev/vg05
# vgdisplay -v /dev/vg0

again,

If you have installed the patch - PHKL_24646 or any supercedes other in the system, then this error can occur. In this case, you need to apply the PHKL_27178 (s700_800 11.00 LVM Cumulative Patch w/Performance Upgrades) to the system.

Check the patches with:
# swlist -v -l fileset | grep PHKL_24646

OH WOW!!!!

Success!

That patch took care of the whole deal. Installed, rebooted the machine, and *blammo* - it's all imported and ready to go. Mounted the directory and did a few read/write ops, and everything looks clean as a whistle.

Guys - I can't thank you enough for this. I wish I could give 1000 points to each of you! ;)

Thanks again. You're the best!!
