Dario,

Try the command "varyonvg -b", which can be run on a volume group that is
already varied on. This will remove the ODM vg-lock.

Subject: Locked VG

Hi AIX people,

        I encountered a locked volume group, rootvg and other 2 vg's. I
tried to unlock the VG but it seems that
there's no lock attribute on ODM/Device configuration database. I tried to
execute synclvodm "VGname" (as
suggested by the system). After that, I tried to unlock again the VG (chvg
-u) but still get the same error.

Please help and Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
rad
