That disk is probably already "online". It would be part of the VG since it
would have read the PVID off the disk on boot. What does the output of lspv
tell you ? What about the output of lsvg -p rootvg ?

Subject: URGENT failed hdisk problem

I've got a scsi hdisk in a system that had two logical volumes on it, and a
paging space...it seems to have gone batty and forced the system to
reboot...the old hdisk (hdisk3) is now listed as missing, and a new hdisk
(hdisk8) appears, in the same location code..so it's the same disk. Is it
possible to get that disk back online without losing the contents? I think
if I add hdisk8 to the volume group, it's going to format it, isn't it?
Help!
