Do I put the LVMs into the VG before exporting?
After exporting how do I get the disk names to align? The diskNN numbers are different for the same drive.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Couple questions about vgexport/import
Just exporting with "-s", this will include the VGID into the mapfile, so the other node can easily find and match them.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

SolutionIf you specify -s in conjunction with the -m option vgexport simply adds the VG-ID to the mapfile.
Node1:-
========
# vgexport -v -s -m -p /tmp/vgXX.map vgXX
#cat /tmp/vgxx.map
sample o/p
# cat /tmp/vgXX.map
VGID bfb13ce63a7c07c4
1 lvol1
2 lvol2
3 lvsap
4 lvdata
# copy vgxx.map to alternative node
Node2:-
========
#mkdir /dev/vgxx
#mknod /dev/vgxx/group c 64 0x010000
# vgimport -v -s -m /tmp/vgXX.map vgXX
If you want to redefine the disk device names similar to node 1 , you may need to do ioinit procedure in node2 to change the instance id of the controller (similar to the node1)

Re: Couple questions about vgexport/import
Yes,It is better to sync the vg configuration files(shared vg) if there is any changes done in any node.
