[HPADM] volume group not activating on bootup

Greetings. Have a K460 that is running 11.0 and volume manager. It is also
part of a cluster. Only the root vg is mirrored. For the most part, the
machine boots and reboots fine. However, there is one file system, the ONLY
file system on vg02, that does not mount on bootup. It is in /etc/fstab, but
on bootup, a message gets displayed on the screen that the file system
failed to mount. Trying to mount the filesystem manually fails, but also
produces a message that vg02 is not active. Running a vgcfgrestore and then
a vgchange on vg02 does reactivate the volome group and then it can be
mounted. I am hoping that I can get some advice as to what to check into as
to why vg02 is not activating on a system boot. A pvdisplay and a vgdisplay
seems to show good results, i.e., nothing is stale.
