    I mistakenly deleted the "hdisk" associated with an SAS Raid 5 array of pdisks and need to recreated it.  The array still exists but has an "unknwn"

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Name      Resource  State       Description              Size
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    sissas1   FFFFFFFF  Primary     PCI-X266 Ext Tri-x4 3Gb SAS RAID Adapter
     sissas2  00000000  AWC linked  Redundant cache protection for sissas1

     

    *unknwn*  00FFFFFF  Failed      RAID 5 Array          SND8D1B16A

     pdisk0   00000200  RWProtected Array Member           428.4GB
     pdisk17  00080B00  Failed      Array Member           428.4GB
     pdisk3   00000500  RWProtected Array Member           428.4GB
     pdisk5   00000700  RWProtected Array Member           428.4GB
     pdisk4   00000600  RWProtected Array Member           428.4GB
     pdisk2   00000400  RWProtected Array Member           428.4GB

     

    How can I recreate the "hdisk" associated with this raid array?  I know the PVID of the hdisk from the VG data also:

    rootvg:
    PV ID             PV STATE          TOTAL PPs   FREE PPs    FREE DISTRIBUTION
    00c3c6f52a43460e  missing           1994        212         00..00..49..100..63
    hdisk1            active            1994        209         48..42..00..00..119
