I was changing the alternate path to be the primary, so I did a vgreduce to remove the (old) primary, and then vgextend to add it back to make it the alt path.
When I vg extend it back in, I get :
vgextend: Too many physical extents for volume group.
Cannot add physical volume to volume group.
LVM_MAXPXS: 65535
( I also tried vgextend )
vgextend /dev/vgemcdbf04 /dev/dsk/c17t0d1 /dev/dsk/c16t0d1
Which returns the same thing.

Re: vgextend-Too many physical extents
Sorry ... fingered it out...
vgchange -a y - wouldn't work either
Rebuilt the lvmtab and then vgchange worked and the new alt path is there.
