New disk "ERROR" in vxdisk list
- 14 years ago
Bill,
Are you trying to initialise the disk?
Can you please try:
# vxdisksetup -i fabric_79
see this technote for some background (ie: vxdisksetup may be setting additional attributes): http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH59768
... however, this still may not work as you're using an old version - eg: the following technote references Powerpath, but also mentions that 4.1MP2 is required for full EFI support (""Note that the full support of the EFI disks requires VxVM 4.1 MP2 or VxVM 5.0 MP1 RP1. A reconfiguration reboot is necessary if either PowerPath or VxVM was upgraded.")
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH54064
Try the vxdisksetup, if this still does not work, please post the output and will see if I can find anything about EFI on 4.1MP1 in the meantime.
