I want to replace a disk. This is the first time, kindly give me steps to be followed. <BR />We have only 1 disk <BR /> /dev/dsk/c0t4d0<BR />in volume group vg02,which <BR />is giving problem. This disk is having only 2 logical volume lvol1 and rawlog data area.<BR />I want to replace this disk and the content to be<BR />copied from old disk to new disk and then new disk should be placed as same as old disk , i.e., /dev/dsk/c0t4d0 and vg02.<BR />Thanks in advance.<BR /> Fri, 14 Mar 2003 03:52:40 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/lvm-replacing-a-disk/m-p/2927198#M634468 Geeta Singh 2003-03-14T03:52:40Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/lvm-replacing-a-disk/m-p/2927199#M634469 connect the new disk at some other target (c0t5d0)<BR /><BR />ioscan <BR /><BR />pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c0t5d0<BR /><BR />vgextend /dev/vg02 /dev/dsk/c0t5d0<BR /><BR />pvmove -n /dev/vg02/lvol1 /dev/dsk/c0t4d0 /dev/dsk/c0t5d0<BR /><BR />pvmove -n /dev/vg02/lvol2 /dev/dsk/c0t4d0 /dev/dsk/c0t5d0<BR /><BR />vgreduce /dev/vg02 /dev/dsk/c0t4d0<BR /><BR />umount /dev/vg02/lvol1 (not required if used in raw mode but you will need to stop the application using this lvol)<BR /><BR />umount /dev/vg02/lvol2<BR /><BR />note down the minor number for /dev/vg02/group<BR /><BR />vgexport -s -m vg02.map /dev/vg02<BR /><BR />stop the server, change the ID from 5 to 4 <BR /><BR />ioscan<BR /><BR />mkdir /dev/vg02<BR /><BR />mknod /dev/vg02/grup c 64 0xXX0000 <BR />XX is the minor number noted above.<BR /><BR />vgimport -s -m vg02.map /dev/vg02<BR /><BR />everything whould be back as normal...<BR /><BR />Do not forget to do a man on each command befor you try for more details.<BR /><BR />hope this helps...<BR /> Fri, 14 Mar 2003 08:50:40 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/lvm-replacing-a-disk/m-p/2927199#M634469 monasingh_1 2003-03-14T08:50:40Z
