    We have a 7026-6H1 acting as a fail-over for our production 7026-6M1 system
    running a custom application using Oracle. The 6H1 is used for dev when not
    in being used in a fail-over situation. Earlier this morning the system
    filled up one of the file systems and became very sluggish. By the time I
    got access to it, the system was reporting quite a few controller, scsi,
    and drive errors. lsdev -Cc disk is shows:
    # lsdev -Cc disk
    hdisk0 Available 40-60-00-4,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive
    hdisk1 Available 40-61-00-8,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive
    hdisk2 Defined 11-08-00-0,0 SCSI Disk Array RAID 5

    and
    lspv shows:
    # lspv hdisk2
    0516-010 lspv: Volume group must be varied on; use varyonvg command.
    PHYSICAL VOLUME: hdisk2 VOLUME GROUP: testvg
    PV IDENTIFIER: 0009df9aae5e8e97 VG IDENTIFIER 0009df9aae5eae61

    Any way of recovering this VG?

    Thanks.
