    i have a AIX host connect to two EMC storage, they are same model, same config. i have configured a vg with 2 copy evenly distributed across the two array.
    i disconnected one EMC, the host seemed hang for 2-3 minutes.
    then i reconnect the EMC, from EMC command powermt,is shows the disks are online again. but when i "lsvg -p", it shows the disk is missing:
    PV_NAME PV STATE TOTAL PPs FREE PPs FREE DISTRIBUTION
    hdiskpower0 active 1279 7 00..00..00..00..07
    hdiskpower10 missing 1279 7 00..00..00..00..07

    now i want resync, but when i issue syncvg, it prompt with a error.
    so what can i do to resync?

    You need to tell AIX to recheck the disks before you tell AIX to use the disks.

    varyonvg <vgname> will do it.

    I strongly recommend reading the LVM redbooks.
