vxassist failing
I have Volume Manager v4.1 running on Solaris 10.
I am getting the following error message when trying to create new volumes
$vxassist -g dg01 make volume21 10G layout=stripe disk1 disk2
VxVM vxassist ERROR V-5-1-10127 creating subdisk disk1-21:
Subdisk disk1-21 would overlap subdisk disk1-01
This command is precisely how I created volumes 1-20. There is ample free
space remaining in the disk group.

Re: vxassist failing
post "vxdg -g dg01 free"
as well as
vxprint -thg dg01
and lastly
vxassist -g maxsize layout=stripe disk1 disk2
What I want to see is the location of the sub-disk disk1-01
It depends what each disk (disk1 and 2 - but specifically disk1) has got
left space-wise.

Re: vxassist failing
I noticed this last nite; somehow the free space is being reported incorrectly
for disk1. I suppose that is resulting in offset 0 being used for new volumes,
causing the overlay error.
hmmmm, this began after a StorageTek visit to reconfig (yet again) our SAN
to fix some problems.

Re: vxassist failing
The problem is fixed. The configuration database became corrupt somehow. The
following command rebuilt it without disruption.
'vxconfigd -k -x cleartempdir'
Thanks for your help.
