Table A-1 Conversion error messages
Message Description
Analysis indicates that this
volume group cannot be converted
because not all of the disks
and/or volumes in the LVM volume
group are currently accessible
For successful conversion, all physical volumes
in a volume group must be on-line, and all
logical volumes must be active and accessible.
Make sure the physical volumes in a volume
group are on-line and the logical volumes are
active and not in use.
Analysis shows that there is
insufficient private space
available to convert this volume
group
The error message indicates the maximum
amount of records that can be stored in the
private space, and how many records are needed
to convert this particular volume group.
You can reduce the number of records needed by
reducing the number of logical volumes in
volume group by combining some of the logical
volumes together.
