Do you have anything on /dev/sdb1, or is that the new LUN? It's showing as an un-partitioned volume at the moment. I'm guessing that you might want to turn this into a volume group or add it to your existing volume group that /dev/sda2 is in, vg_outsystemdb.

If this is the case, then pvcreate and vgextend will help you.

Can you show use the output for vgdisplay -v so we can avoid anything that already exists.

The output from uname -a would also ensure we give you appropriate commands for your OS version.

If /dev/sdb1 is not your new LUN, a boot should pick it up if that can be arranged.

Robin

NAME

       hpfc - Agilent fibre channel host bus adapter

SYNOPSIS

       PCI   pci103c

DESCRIPTION

       The hpfc fibre channel host bus adapter is a SCSA compliant nexus driver that supports all Agilent fibre channel host bus adapters, includ-
       ing the HHBA5100x, HHBA5101x, and HHBA5121x models. Agilent host bus adapters support the fibre channel protocol on private  fibre  channel
       arbitrated loops and fabrics. The driver supports up to ten host bus adapters, with a maximum of 125 fibre channel devices on each host bus
       adapter. The hpfc driver supports a maximum of 256 LUNs per target.

       The hpfc driver does not support the BIOS Int 13 feature, which enables the booting of an operating system. As a  result,  you  should  not
       install an operating system on devices attached to the hpfc driver.

CONFIGURATION

       The hpfc driver attempts to configure itself using the information in the /kernel/drv/hpfc.conf configuration file.

       By default, the driver supports only LUN 0 for each target device. To add multiple LUN support, modify the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file.

       Before  upgrading the hpfc driver, backup the sd.conf file to save customized LUN settings and then use pkgrm(1M) to remove the old version
       of the driver.

       The host bus adapter port is initialized to FL_Port when connected to a fabric switch. To change it  to	F_Port,  add  the  init_as_nport=1
       entry to the hpfc.conf file and reboot the system.

       To  conserve system resources, at least one disk drive must be attached to the hpfc driver. If no devices are attached, the driver will not
       load.
