Can you post the messages that were logged in /var/adm/messages when you had this failure, if they are not too long.

It looks like Volume Manager has attempted to relocate subdisk A5200-r-07-01 on to another disk, and your recovery procedure may depends on whether or not it completed before that disk failed as well.

Is that the only disk that works with prtvtoc?

Yes that the only disk work.

What is the command to fsck on the filesystem?

Thanks

When I ran fsck it gives me the error message:

fsck -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/A5200-vg/RAID-B-qio-db
vxfs fsck: cannot stat /dev/vx/dsk/A5200-vg/RAID-B-qio-db

After analyze the disk, see the message below:

analyze> read
Ready to analyze (won't harm SunOS). This takes a long time,
but is interruptable with CTRL-C. Continue?

The disk was cream crackered. Talked him through a bunch of Veritas commands to try and managed to get part of it back on line part 1 of them just wouldn't play ball. Conclusion Cream Crackered Disk.

Thank you everyone for trying to help. I did realized we have to mirrow disk happens to be bad. We replaced the disks and created a filesystem and restore from the backup then rebuild our databases.

All the command you have giving us should work but we just happens to have a bad disk.

Thanks again for all your help.
