device, to be extended to a volume group, must have the same EMC Symmetrix attributes as the physical
volumes already in the volume group. Clearly this checking only applies if the disks involved (those
already in the volume group and those being added) in the operation are EMC Symmetrix. Should the
command find an incompatibility, a message of the following type will be produced:
"Attempt to mix incompatible EMC Symmetrix disk types failed. Volume group contains standard
disks, but physical volume /dev/dsk/cxtxdx contains EMC BCV DISK. Please consult the EMC Sym-
metrix documentation, if applicable".
