Ok, that looks fine. The "inactive" just means that no Physical Extents (PEs) have been allocated on the new volumes yet. You've got 24MB left on your dasdh1 PV, so if you create a 30MB logical volume and re-run the pvscan, it should show one of the new volumes as being ACTIVE (most likely dasdk1).
