mirror rootvg

Hello

I have a new problem with mirror rootvg

I need to do the same thing on others servers. In one of these I do the same with no problem, but in another fs on the same server I got this message

lsvg -l rootvg
rootvg:

There are not enough free partitions or not enough physical volumes

should be retried with different allocation characteristics.

Thanks again for your tips.

LEARN ABOUT MOJAVE

opendev

OPENDEV(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						OPENDEV(3)

NAME

     opendev -- short form device open routine

SYNOPSIS

     #include <util.h>

     int
     opendev(char *path, int oflags, int dflags, char **realpath);

DESCRIPTION

     The opendev() function opens a device using the ``short form'' name.  This is typically ``disk0s3'', for instance, which will be expanded to
     /dev/rdisk0s3 on most architectures.

     Device name lookup is done by first checking path for a ``/'' and if one is found attempting to open that file.  Otherwise /dev is searched
     for a matching device.

     The oflags are the same as the flags passed to open(2).

     The dflags are specified by OR'ing the following values:

	   OPENDEV_PART    attempt to open the raw partition during expansion
	   OPENDEV_BLCK    open the block device (default is character device)

     The ``raw'' partition is defined as the partition which provides access to the entire disk, regardless of the disk's partition map.

     If realpath is not NULL, it is modified to point at the fully expanded device name.

RETURN VALUES

     The opendev() return value and errors are the same as the return value and errors of open(2).

WARNINGS

     If realpath is not NULL, on return it will point to internal static storage space that will be overwritten by subsequent calls.

SEE ALSO

     open(2)

HISTORY

     The opendev() function first appeared in OpenBSD 1.2.
