Help with adding new disks in HACMP

UNIX AIX
1

Hi

Below are the new luns added by the storage team. My cluster setup is a three node HA cluster. I could see the below mentioned luns on all the three nodes :

hdisk26         00084dd0ef986943                    None
hdisk27         00084dd0ef988d1f                    None

and we tried to extend the shared volume group through the following steps.

smitty hacmp-->System Management (C-SPOC)-->HACMP Logical Volume Management -->Shared Volume Group-->set Characteristics of a shared volume group-->Add a volume to a shared volume group

We have selected the following shared volume group and resource name.

esbsirg3, sirg3vg1

then selected the new disks..i.e hdisk 26 and hdisk27. After hitting enter, we got the following error..

cl_extendvg: Error executing extendvg sirg3vg1 hdisk27 hdisk26 on node esbsit03

Can any one please advise why we get this error ?

Could you post the output of:

your volume group is not concurrent capable, not required, but suggested.

are your disks present on all cluster nodes for this resource group?
