errpt (errpt -a -N hdisk2 > hdisk2log.log) tells me a lot. many disk operation errors it seems...

when i do a rmdev of this disk and then a cfgmgr, aix recognizes the disk and configures it properly, but it's still not possible to use the disk...

there is another disk on the controller, the hdisk0. Everything ok with this disk, so it won't be the controller i guess?

i've already tried an importvg with as result:

# importvg hdisk2
0516-024 lqueryvg: Unable to open physical volume.
Either PV was not configured or could not be opened. Run
diagnostics.
0516-024 lqueryvg: Unable to open physical volume.
Either PV was not configured or could not be opened. Run
diagnostics.
0516-1140 importvg: Unable to read the volume group descriptor area
on specified physical volume.

I think that this disk is really dead... although it stays weird :-)

NAME
pfto - Powerfail Timeout DESCRIPTION
HP-UX SCSI disk device drivers have a timeout facility that detects non-responding disks. VxVM uses this mechanism in its Powerfail Time- out (pfto) feature. You can specify a timeout value for individual VxVM disks using the vxdisk command (see the EXAMPLES section below). If a disk fails to respond in the specified timeout period, the driver receives a timer interrupt. pfto values are persistent across reboots, that is, after the pfto value is set, it remains in effect until you explicitly change it. If dynamic multipathing is enabled, the pfto value set on a disk applies to each path of a multipath disk device. The pfto value is in seconds. If pfto is not specified, or is zero, the timeout period is 30 seconds. Both the vxdisk and vxprint commands display the current pfto value for a disk. EXAMPLES
Use the following command to set the value of pfto to 30 seconds on disk01: vxdisk -g rootdg set disk01 pfto=30 Use either of the following commands to display the pfto value on the VxVM disk disk01: vxdisk list disk01 vxprint -l disk01 EXIT CODES
Setting the pfto value on a non-VxVM disk returns an error. SEE ALSO
