not able to mount after cloning

[satheeshnp]

i have a cloned a filesystem through EMC timefinder cloning.

Cloning is successfully completed. But When i try to mount it is showing error.

Fsck output itself showing error.

bkpsvr:root-/]fsck -F vxfs /dev/vg05/rlvol2
UX:vxfs fsck: ERROR: V-3-20005: read of super-block on /dev/vg05/rlvol2 failed: I/O error
file system check failure, aborting ...

Kindly help in this to mount...

Shalom,

Looks like the file system has been clobbered.

Might be by design.

Have you imported the disk group?

bkpsvr:root-/etc]vgimport vg05 /dev/dsk/c24t4d3
vgimport: Volume group "/dev/vg05" already exists in the "/etc/lvmtab" file.

Did you export your VG before creating a new one? I.e. using #vgexport vg05

If you clone a currently used file system, some files may be open and modified during the clone operation.


However, after cloning do a "fsck" and a "vgchid" to get another VGID.

Hi ,

First time I have cloned the luns and mounted

pls find the steps


mkdir /dev/vg05

mknod /dev/vg05/group c 64 0x010000

vgchgid /dev/rdsk/c24t4d3

vgimport vg05 /dev/dsk/c24t4d3

vgchange -a y vg05

fsck -F vxfs /dev/vg05/rlvol2

mount -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vg05/lvol2 /test1


It is working. Second time i have cloned and mounted by using same method, it is not working.

I need incremental cloning daily. How can i perform.

My target was to have incremental clone daily.

Please help
