If weverything was installed correctly and you rebooted or ran cfgmgr,
then they should be there.  Look at errpt and see if any errors, most likely
will be some if not cabled correctly.  Double check cabling would be 
my first step.  It's easy to get the cabling on SSA wrong, you can 
"cable out" part of the drawer.

This is an AIX question so may be off subject a little.

I just had a second SSA drawer installed with 16 disks, only 7 of them seem
to be missing depending on how you want to look at them. LSPV shows this for
those disks. I've never seen this before so I'm not sure how to "initialize"
if you will to get them to show up in Smitty, can't see them there. I'll be
using these for my disk pools and DB and Log mirrors.

hdisk18        none                None
hdisk19        none                None
hdisk20        none                None
hdisk21        none                None
hdisk22        none                None
hdisk23        none                None
hdisk24        none                None
hdisk33        none                None
Others show this:

hdisk25        000143405656e7ba    None
hdisk26        000143405657922b    None
hdisk27        000143405657e7d1    None
hdisk28        00014340565826e1    None

Thanks for the help. Oh, lsdev -Cc disk does show the disks.
