Summary: Veritas-EMC problem or forcing a "reconfigure" upon reboot

From: WDCL@dynegy.com

Question: How to force "reconfigure" for each boot?

    Solution 1: Create a RC script that executes "touch /reconfigure" each time
the system boots.
    Solution 2: Run a cron job to check for and create, if necessary, the
/reconfigure flag file.
    Solution 3: Create the /reconfigure file. Modify the existing
"/etc/init.d/cacheos" RC file to stop deletion of the /reconfigure file.

     I implemented solutions 1 and 2 (paranoia). I like solution 3, but have a
policy against modifying system files.

Question: Why does Veritas Volume Manager (3.0.1) only see one of the EMC
drives, which are connected to an E4500 with Jacor FC cards,
                     when booting without the "reconfigure" option.

     **** Still unresolved ****

Thanks for the help.
