VxVM disk grow [UPDATE]

thanks
greetings martin

hi,
i have a volume on a LUN of an EMC-storage and i need to increase the
size.
i could increase the size of the LUN on the EMC, i could increase the
size of the disk for solaris, but how can i tell the veritas volume
manager that the disk is larger now?

what i've done:

1. LUN on EMC
2. in the format menue i' ve chosen the type to autoconfigure, i can see
the bigger disk in solaris, then in the partitions menu i've created the
VTOC like before, only one slice on 7 (and 2 for backup, like before) for
the whole space.
but VxVM still means
# vxassist -g datadg maxsize
VxVM vxassist ERROR V-5-1-752 No volume can be created within the given
constraints
# vxassist -g datadg maxgrow datavol
VxVM vxassist ERROR V-5-1-1178 Volume datavol cannot be extend within the
given constraints

so i tried "vxdctl enable", but still the same... but i can still work
with the volume.. it must be written in the privatregion somewhere...
any ideas?

thanks in advance,
best regards

Martin/PRESSY
