vlm info

[Mahesh S]

Hi, earlier I had posted a question about the
procedures to follow after clonning the disk using dd. It worked manually,

-------------------------
After dd, booted the disk with LVM maintainance mode, exported the vg info,
Imported new vg info, created nodes in /dev/vg00/group ..,
modified the /stand/bootconf for new disk.
-------------------------
I checked all the info again lvlnboot -v, vgdisplay, strings /etc/lvmtab.. Everything is fine. Its all displaying new disk informations.

After If I reboot the machine w/o LVM maintainance mode from new disk..
Its again booted with OLD disk and showing all OLD disk info.

I could not able to boot normally with new disk. Do I need to change any more vx info/lvm files.

History: 2 disks are in same server, disk2 cloned from disk1 by dd command. Now trying
Both diffrent bootable disks on same server

Thank you,

Did you try to interrupt the autoboot and then use "bo P#"? (run "sea" it will list all devices P# point to your newdisk let's say)

Hi Yang,

My script is doing the 'dd' and will set the setboot options appropriately. I checked it,
Boot options are proper. disk1 will be alternate
and disk2(cloned disk) will be primary boot path
