After vxconfigd was stopped and restarted (or disabled and then enabled), VxVM failed to recreate the import of the indicated disk group. The reason for failure is specified. Additional error messages may be displayed that give further information describing the problem.

A major cause for this kind of failure is disk failures that were not addressed before vxconfigd was stopped or disabled. If the problem is a transient disk failure, then rebooting may take care of the condition. The error may be accompanied by messages such as "Disk group has no valid configuration copies." This indicates that the disk group configuration copies have become corrupt (due to disk failures, writing on the disk by an application or the administrator, or bugs in VxVM).
