Yes, the hdisk3 is a partition of the Raid array.. (raid 1)
The error message is something like:
The LVM returned an unknown code (3).
Or when I try to remove the vg, the message is: Failed to execute the programm ' '
and when I try to do all the other commands, usually I get : The Volume Group must varied on first.. Use the varyonvg command..

Looking for help in understanding volume groups.
On the internal disks is it possible to have other volume groups other then root vg? If so would the other vg be captured in the mksysb?
Any documentation links that you can point me to on volume groups and such woudl be welcomed.

Hello,
I have logical volume group of 50GB, in which I have 2 logical volumes, LogVol01 and LogVol02, both are of 10GB.
If I extend LogVol01 further by 10GB, then it keeps the extended copy after logical volume 2. I want to know where it keeps this information

lvremove
lvremove(1M) lvremove(1M)
NAME
lvremove - remove one or more logical volumes from LVM volume group
SYNOPSIS
autobackup] lv_path ...
Remarks
If the logical volume input arguments belong to a combination of volume groups version 1.0 and 2.0 or higher, the arguments may not be pro-
cessed in the order they are listed on the command line.
DESCRIPTION
The command removes each logical volume specified by lv_path ....
Logical volumes must be closed before they can be removed. For example, if the logical volume contains a file system, the file system
before removing it.
Options and Arguments
recognizes the following options and arguments:
lv_path The block device path name of a logical volume.
Set automatic backup for this invocation of this command.
autobackup can have one of the following values:
Automatically back up configuration changes made to the logical volume.
This is the default.
After this command executes, the command (see vgcfgbackup(1M)) is executed for the volume group to which
the logical volume belongs.
Do not back up configuration changes this time.
Specify that no user confirmation is required.
Shared Volume Group Considerations
For volume group version 1.0 and 2.0, cannot be used if the volume group is activated in shared mode. For volume groups version 2.1 (or
higher), can be performed when activated in either shared, exclusive, or standalone mode.
Note that the daemon must be running on all the nodes sharing a volume group activated in shared mode. See lvmpud(1M).
When is issued, it removes the logical volume device special files from all the nodes sharing the volume group.
When a node wants to share the volume group, the user must first execute a if logical volumes were removed at the time the volume group was
not activated on that node.
LVM shared mode is currently only available in Serviceguard clusters.
