no, you have just hit the "MAXIMUM NUMBER of LOGICAL PARTITIONS" of this logical volume. This is a value which can easily be changed:

enter "smitty lv" and select "Set Characteristics of ...", then "Change a Logical Volume" and enter/select the name of the LV. In the upcoming screen find the parameter mentioned above and overwrite the value with some higher value. Save.

Alternatively: "chlv -x<newValue> <LVName>" is doing the same.
