Did you vary the volume groups off after changing the quorum?
>From the man page...
-Q Determines if the volume group is automatically varied off after losing
its
quorum of physical volumes. The default value is yes. The change becomes
effective the next time the volume group is activated.

> chvg -Qn rootvg
> chvg -Qn apps_vg
>
> I've used the mklvcopy command to copy each logical

> each vg to synchonize them.

> I've tried physically removing one drive from the
