Whilst trying to create a Logical volume group I am experiencing problems :-

I have used the pvcreate command to designate the component disks :-

# pvcreate /dev/rrz8c
# pvcreate /dev/rrz16c
etc......

Next I created a directory and character special file :-

# mkdir /dev/vg01
# mknod /dev/vg01/group c 16 0

When I try creating the volume group I get the following error message :-

# vgcreate /dev/vg01 /dev/rz8c /dev/rz16c /dev/rz17c /dev/rz18c

vgcreate: Cannot open the control file "/dev/vg01/group":
No such device or address

The file does exist :-

# ls -l /dev/vg01
total 0
crw-r--r-- 1 root system 16, 0 Sep 16 15:50 group

Any ideas would be much appreciated
