Unable to add 300gb secondary disk to running 11.11 HPUX system
This has got to be the system from hell. Once again, on the RP4440 (after the supplier replaced the entire box due to the bad RTC battery), finally have it all reloaded with the packages the developers need. The last thing is to add the secondary disk to the OS.
BCH sees both OS and secondary disk, IOSCAN sees the disk, ioscan -funC, the disk shows up, diskinfo reads the disk ok, HOWEVER, when I do a vgcreate I get VGRA appears corrupted at the end of the create. pvcreate -f /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0, works, vgcreate works and Vgdisplay actually shows the vg online and available and good, but the VGRA appears corrupted still occurs. lvmtab gets updated. vgcfgbackup vg01 fails, lvcreate WORKS, but mkfs fails.
If I vgchange -a n vg01, then vgchange -a y vg01 it cannot import the vg because it cannot associate the vg to a physical volume.
I have replaced the disk, Patched to Dec '09 release of OS patches from ITRC. Did searches for LVM, SCSI, DISK, SAM, VGRA and downloaded and installed the patches. Still fails. Any Ideas?
As of now, DD is able to write just fine to the disk (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c3t0d0 bs=1024k count=300000)

vxinstall
vxinstall(1M) vxinstall(1M) NAME
vxinstall - menu-driven Veritas Volume Manager initial configuration procedure SYNOPSIS
vxinstall DESCRIPTION
The vxinstall utility provides a menu driven interface to configure Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM). If you install the Veritas Volume Man- ager software package using the operating system's package administration commands, you can run vxinstall to configure VxVM for initial use on your system. Note: If you use the Veritas software installation scripts, do not run this utility. OPERATIONS
Licensing vxinstall first asks if you want to view the Veritas licenses already installed on the system. Answering "yes" is equivalent to exe- cuting the vxlicrep command (see vxlicrep(1)). You are then asked if you want to add licenses for other Veritas products. Answering "yes" is equivalent to running the vxlicinst command (see vxlicinst(1)). and entering a license key. Enclosure-Based Naming You can choose whether you want to use disk access names that are based on the device names assigned by the operating system, or that are based on names that you assign to enclosures. System-Wide Default Disk Group You can enter the name for the default disk group (defaultdg). This is an alias for the disk group name that should be assumed if the -g option is not specified to a command, or if the VXVM_DEFAULTDG environment variable is undefined. By default, defaultdg is set to nodg (that is, no disk group). NOTES
From release 4.0 of VxVM, it is no longer necessary to run vxinstall to configure the rootdg disk group. Disks and disk groups may be added to VxVM by running commands such as vxdiskadm(1M) or by using the graphical user interface without first running vxinstall. The operation of VxVM does not require any disk groups to have been configured, and a disk group named rootdg does not need to be present on the system. Any disk group may be configured as the default disk group that is to be used with VxVM commands. Any disk group named rootdg has no special significance to VxVM. See the vxdg(1M) manual page for further details. SEE ALSO
