It is possible to ignore LVM and install a file system directly on a physical disk, but few people would do that and the OS installation procedure would make it rather hard to do. So, yes, you need to fsck /dev/vg01/lvol4 and lvol5.
Hi, thx for all help. I think I got a hang of it now and found out what disk that is malfunctioning.
I did an diskinfo on the specified disk /dev/rdsk/c5t6d0 and it shows size: 0 Kbytes, which seems quite odd. All other disks seems fine and gives the correct size.
