Operating Systems AIX Need to replace a broken PV in a VIO VG used for client LPARs (and it won't release the old one) Post 303043829 by maraixadm on Friday 7th of February 2020 04:40:15 PM

Need to replace a broken PV in a VIO VG used for client LPARs (and it won't release the old one)

I have a broken PV in a VIO VG that's used to support client LPARs using LVs. On the client LPAR, I reduced all PVs from the relevant client VG and thus deleted it. I.e. there is no client LPAR using the VIO VG. Yet when I try to reducevg the VIO VG, it complains that the LV hosted on the PV is open/active and that I should "close" it. It's not a mounted FS, just a LV serving the client LPARs.

How do I get past this so I can reduce the broken PV from the VIO VG ?

TIA....

Rebooting redundant VIOs and mirroring of PVs they serve to client LPARs

need to confirm: we have a system with two VIOs each serving a partition on a local disk to a client LPAR. That client LPAR has them both in a VG which is mirrored (exact). So each disk has a copy of the client LV that the client VG supports. This is the setup that was bequeathed to us by the... (3 Replies)
