AIX extend VG error
Hi,

I have encountered the issue of extending VG:
Here is my command
Code:
[root@xxx] / > extendvg vg1 hdisk39
0516-1162 extendvg: Warning, The Physical Partition Size of 128 requires the
        creation of 8192 partitions for hdisk39.  The limitation for volume group
        tsm_stg is 3048 physical partitions per physical volume.  Use chvg command
        with -t option to attempt to change the maximum Physical Partitions per
        Physical volume for this volume group.
0516-792 extendvg: Unable to extend volume group.

Have try chvg -t but
Code:
[root@xxx] / > chvg -t 6 vg1
0516-1780 lchangevg: Volume group conversion is not possible since the factor value
        of 6 can accommodate at most 21 physical volumes.

Any advice if I can change the parameter "MAX PPs per PV"?

I can see other VG has big number
