Hi Experts,
I have the following Problem:

7133-D40
1 SSA-Disk out of 12 in this loop is destroyed.
5 other Disks are showing the state missing, but they are still fine (checked with lsqueryvg -Atp hdiskn).
I can not remove the failed Disk (Device busy), but there is no LV on that disk anymore (lspv -l hdiskn).
I have replaced the failing disk by a new one.
What will happen when I run varyonvg on that VG to get rid of the missing PV state. Will their be a problem because of the failing disk which is still in the configuration?
Any hints how to remove that failed disk out of my config?

TIA
Axel
 
# lspv|grep [hdisk#]
(note the PVID of the failed disk)

# reducevg [vgname] [PVID]

Sometimes life could be so easy, if one would think before doing something.B-)
Thanks a lot Bill.
