after a restore ???

[kate32]

Hi guys,

after a restore system on another physical machine with others disks size (bigger), do we loose the configuration and mirroring of vg00 ?

In that case do I have to perform a vgreduce of the second disk then rebuild it :
# pvcreate -B
# mkboot -a "hpux -lq (;0)/stand/vmunix"

then extend vg00 with the disk and do the mirroring as follow:
# for i in 1 2 3
do
lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol$i
sleep 2
done

And for the network settings do I have to reset the IP before the installation (IPL)?

Thanks in advance
Kate

Shalom Kate,

Ignite has an interface that prompts for a keyboard interupt during restore. You can change networking, logical volume sizes, a host of issues.


Some newer versions of Ignite preserve mirroring with make_tape_recovery. For a golden image, you must script the mirror building at the end of the process, though its not too difficult.

Thank you Sep ! I will check and modify the config during the IPL. I will see if it preserves the mirroring if not I will do it again no big deal

Thanks again.
