Troubleshooting 153
The number of volume groups that can
be created on a system was exceeded. See the documentation for the OS
and Volume Manager and check the
number of volume groups that can be
created in the system. If the created
number has reached the maximum,
no more volume groups can be
created. Delete any unnecessary
volume groups (including group files
in HP-UX), and then re-execute the
addition operation.
