[HPADM] VGEXTEND "too many links"

Hello:

We have a SG cluster and one of the applications volume groups needs
additional disk. After the EMC DMX disk were added and connected to the
host we tried to extend the volume group to add the new disk, with
alternate link and get an error message "vgextend too many links"

vgextend /dev/vgname /dev/dsk/c10t3d6 /dev/dsk/11t3d6 (same disk
with multi. paths)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You
