    So for sure, you won't be able to get CDS since you are on 3.5.....

    Also, did you do "Analyze LVM groups for conversion" when you ran vxvmconvert ? If yes, what was the result ?

    Secondly did you mean to say, that when you were at 4.1, that time also vxdisk list was not showing disks as auto:LVM ? 

    I doubt if 3.5 use to show it as auto:LVM  ..

    In your Itanium server where conversion was sucessful, did that had 3.5 or 4.1 ?  Did that server show disks as auto:LVM in "vxdisk list" ?

    I don't think there should be any difference with RISC or Itanium ... It should work same for both..
