Changing the boot disk

I have an HP-UX 11.00 and I want to change my small boot disk. The new one is big, and I want to tansfer all the information including the operating system.
How can I do that?
Thaks!

Re: Changing the boot disk

Your best bet is to use ignite-ux or reinstall from scratch.

Re: Changing the boot disk

That would be difficult as you would be copying the LVM structures to the new disk as well and I am sure you would like to increase the size of those as well. While there are ways to do this with LVM, the best bet here is to backup any user data and reload the OS. That way you can configure the disk the way you need it to be.
