Given:
Let me give some background information which may help to understand our issue:

2Nodes, Dual processor 64-bit, AIX5.1, HACMP/ES4.4 2G memory, 2.5 PagingSpace, SSA Raid5, Oracle RAC 9i. 64-bit OS, ML03

The Clustered box will be specific fo DB performance only.

Problem:
We Created a Volume Group VG1, but it can not be converted into a Concurrent capable or Enhanced one

Outputs:

# chvg -C vg1

0516-1335 mkvg: This system does not support enhanced concurrent capable volume groups.
# chvg -c vg1

0516-1330 chvg: Concurrent capable volume groups are not supported when running with a 64 bit kernel.

# lsvg vg1

hdisk1          000c15ca378a77c6                    None

hdisk3          000c15cac66fc489                    None

My thoughts:
The fact that the message is pointing, that it doesn't support concurrent vg's seems to indicate a missing fileset. or wrong HACMP version .....

Any input will be really appreciated.
