1000 isn't a particularly large number of LUNs, even for 4.1 (although 5.0 will handle such configurations much better and faster). Can you open a support case for this? Regards, Scott

I had forgotten to run vxinstall. But even after I had it could not start vxconfigd.So I removed all VRTS packages did a reconfig boot and re-installed Veritas using the storage foundation 4.1 "installer" script which does the configuration and installation. Even this failed during configuration stage.... ::: Starting vxconfigd for VxVM on linbgm011 ..................................................................... Failed :::: None of the target systems can be configured because 1) its previous configuration was restored, 2) the vxconfigd daemon is not running properly, or 3) VxVM is already configured. Use the vxdctl(1M) command to configure the default disk group after the installation is completed. Press [Return] to continue: Volume Manager default disk group setup and daemon startup vxconfigd on linbgm011 is not available; installer cannot set the default disk group. As vxconfigd is not enabled on linbgm011, VxVM daemons will not be started. Is vxconfigd failing due to the large number of luns?
