Geoff, Sorry, I wasn't being clear. What I meant was, do you have the /dev/dasdaa, /dev/dasdaa1, /dev/dasdab, /dev/dasdab1, etc. nodes defined. Apparently you do, so that answers the question. What shows up with "cat /proc/dasd/devices" ?

I know I can create the dev entries, fix the LVM group to use the /dev/dasd{ etc but from what I read in the doco there shouldn't be a /dev/dasd{ in the first place. At the moment I'm guessing it's a bug but I haven't had the time to prove it yet. I'm more than willing to accept 'user error' playing a big role here.

The characters displayed are next in the collating sequence, so that seems OK. I guess the main question is, when the system comes up, are the device nodes defined in /dev, and do they work? If so, then I wouldn't worry about it much.
