Increase LUN size in AIX with VIOS and HACMP
Hello!

I have this infraestructure:
- 1 POWER7 with single VIOS on Site A.
- 1 POWER6 with single VIOS on Site B.
- 1 LPAR called NodeA as primary node for PowerHA 6.1 on Site A.
- 1 LPAR called NodeB as secondary (cold) node for PowerHA 6.1 on SiteB.
- 1 Storage DS4700 on Site A.
- 1 Storage DS4700 on Site B.
- All VIOS versions are 2.2.0.13-FP24 SP-03.
- All AIX versions are 6.1.6.5.
- Power version is 6.1 SP3.
- Data VG is configured as LVM Cross Site, using one disk from each storage.
- Both disks are configured with reserve_policy=no_reserve in all VIOS an LPARs.
- queue_depth attribute is the same (10) in all VIOS and LPARs for this disks too.

My problem is that I can't increase the size of my data VG.

I increased the LUN size. Then I run cfgdev in both VIOS and cfgmgr in both LPARs. Also chvg -g datavg returns: "0516-1382 chvg: Volume group is not changed. None of the disks in the volume group have grown in size."

I've tried several ways to do this without luck.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Enzote

vconsole.conf

VCONSOLE.CONF(5)                                                   vconsole.conf                                                  VCONSOLE.CONF(5)

NAME

       vconsole.conf - configuration file for the virtual console

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/vconsole.conf

DESCRIPTION

       The /etc/vconsole.conf file configures the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping and console font.

       The basic file format of the vconsole.conf is a newline-separated list environment-like shell-compatible variable assignments. It is
       possible to source the configuration from shell scripts, however, beyond mere variable assignments no shell features are supported,
       allowing applications to read the file without implementing a shell compatible execution engine.

       Note that the kernel command line options vconsole.keymap=, vconsole.keymap.toggle=, vconsole.font=, vconsole.font.map=,
       vconsole.font.unimap= may be used to override the console settings at boot.

       Depending on the operating system other configuration files might be checked for configuration of the virtual console as well, however only
       as fallback.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       KEYMAP=, KEYMAP_TOGGLE=
           Configures the key mapping table of for they keyboard.  KEYMAP= defaults to us if not set. The KEYMAP_TOGGLE= can be used to configured
           a second toggle keymap and is by default unset.

       FONT=, FONT_MAP=, FONT_UNIMAP=
           Configures the console font, the console map and the unicode font map.  FONT= defaults to latarcyrheb-sun16.

EXAMPLE

       Example 1. German keyboard and console

       /etc/vconsole.conf:

           KEYMAP=de-latin1
           FONT=latarcyrheb-sun16
