What does the error log say?  You can run cfgmgr -v to see more detail surrounding this error.  Then check the error log again.  Check the errorlog by looking at summary of events with errpt, then do detail do errpt -a | more.You can do alog -t cfg -o to see previous configuration issues.  do lsvg -o to see if all volume groups are online, in particular deappvg.  Are you trying to share these disks.  See if you can read from the disks lquerypv -h /dev/hdisk13 and do so for 14 and 15.  Look for reservation conflicts to resolve sharing issues like devrsrv -c query -l hdisk13 for all disks.  Most importantly, what changed?

I suspect that we have a problem with a driver or ODM.
