All,

I'm having the following error when I try to create a VG on a disk:

Failure Causes
DEVICE LOCKED BY ANOTHER USER

Recommended Actions
RELEASE DEVICE PERSISTENT RESERVATION

This disk was moved from one server to another (both 690 partitions) without an exportvg (doh!). When I pick up the disks on the new server I get no PVID and can't import, which is ideally what I want to do.

Any thoughts? Hopefully if I can't get it resolved I can move the disk back to the original server and export it cleanly, and then move it back.

Thanks,
John
