It appears that the group you are trying to create is already located on
the PROD volumeset.
To verify, do the following:
:report @.@;onvs=prod
When you purged the group, did you use the ONVS option? If not, you purged
the directory entry in the system domain - not the desired volumeset domain.
In any case, you can always check your work by using the REPORT command
with or without the appropriate ONVS option.
