Drive not in Device Configuration



AIX 5300-05-03
Pseries 6E1 Type 7028

I just added a drive, which I've done before uneventfully. This drive shows in the physical volumes list, is defined, but I continue to get an
0516-304 : Unable to find device id hdisk3 in the Device
Configuration Database.

error when trying to mirror, list contents, anything.

getlvodm -C does not list this drive. I have shutdown and reseated it a couple times, certified it, formatted it, configure a defined disk successfully...I haven't tried it in a different drive bay, that's my next move.

Any suggestions? I did just go from 5300-04 to 5300-05-03 but have not yet committed and have the saved files.
Thank you,
