o.k.
I remove the mirror and the hd5
now I create a new one with:
mklv -y hd5 -t boot -ae rootvg 2 hdisk0
The result from the command lslv -m hd5 is that:
LP PP PV1
0001 0142 hdisk0
0002 0143 hdisk0
Is this o.k, or must the PP Information also on 0001 and 0002?
Best regards,
Frank Mueller

are all of hd5s PPs on the outer edge? That is a requirement of the
migration, and I have been burned with the too small hd5 and the outeredge
req't. ie when you extended hd5 did the second PP get placed on the
outeredge? (mklv -T boot -aey hd5 rootvg 2 hdisk or something like that)

Thanks.
But I have the problem that the node don't boot after I extend the rootvg
over 2 disks.
The problem is this:
I migrate a SP node from AIX 4.3.3 to AIX 5.2. The first migration fails,
because hd5 was only 8 MB and the procedure can't extend hd5 because hdisk0
was full. So I reboot the node normal and extend the rootvg with the second
disk and mirror to hdisk2 and hdisk3. Then I extend hd5, it is located
complet on hdisk0, start an bosboot -ad /dev/hdisk0.
Now I restart the migration and it runs. But after the migration the node
reboots automatically (this is o.k.), but it stops by starting the AIX.....
I start the node in maintenance mode and check rootvg, but it shows o.k. I
controll with lslpp the software and it is on AIX 5.2 and PSSP 3.5
that's my problem

I don't think there's any particular limit to how many disks rootvg is on.
Four is certainly OK.
In general, it is advisable to keep application data out of rootvg: it
makes
life simpler in the long run. You might want to see if you could create a
new VG instead and move some stuff into that.
