Are you at the point and comittment of reloading both the system and privates volumes? I am assuming the private volumes and system volumes all reside on the VA so deleting any individual ldevs would not help as they are spread across the whole VA. If your already committed to a reload of all volumes, I would format the array and create new luns. Unfortunatly the bad spot could be on any one of the physical disk. Looking at the disk logs may help you find out which physical disk needs replacement. Private volumes were great when you had individual spindles and would only need to reliable the volume set that failed.

Unfortunately the drive in question didn't show a fault and thus we have no
idea which drive to replace. And the bad sector message moved from ldev 54
to 56.
Current status: so we tried to do an install using boot alt path and still
get the crash message, except now it doesn't show message "start aggregate
recovery of mpexl set" and goes directly to "userlog aggregate recovery"
then aggregate recovery of private volume then crash message. Our hardware
guy and myself both of us with 20+ years on this platform have never seen
this happen. What is causing this to crash? All devices show as being
mounted, all paths are there, we are stumped. He will attempt to hook a
different VA and bridge to see if that gets us past the crash.
Keep the ideas coming please. Is a test server but ppl are waiting...but I
need sleep...
