Hi again guys!

I`am terrible sorry but i have missed one step in the the solution i email
you last time.. (see below in this email)..

Between step 6 and 7 you need to do the following:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmglob -get_gdbhost             # To list which server
that is gdbhost
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmglob -set_gdbhost <new_hostname>              # To
change the gdbhost.

Then you also have to recreate your storage units with the new hostname.

Else you cant add back the robot and drives again. I`am sorry i missed this.
Hope i havent made you all extra trouble now...
