Re: COPYING LIF FILES
lifls -c /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0 # use real disk.
pvcreate -B /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0 #use real disk
# The next three commands are the ones you need to run.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
mkboot -l /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0
mkboot -a "hpux -lq (;0)/stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0 # use real disk
# mkboot -b /usr/sbin/diag/lif/updatediaglif -p ISL -p AUTO -p HPUX -p PAD -p LABEL /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?
If you are running 64-bit OS:
# mkboot -b /usr/sbin/diag/lif/updatediaglif2 -p ISL -p AUTO -p HPUX -p PAD -p LABEL /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
vgextend /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0 # same thing
lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0
# real disk. repeat for other lvols
lvlnboot -r /dev/vg00/lvol3 # root fs /
lvlnboot -s /dev/vg00/lvol2 #swap
lvlnboot -d /dev/vg00/lvol2 #swap/dump
lvlnboot -b /dev/vg00/lvol1
lvlnboot -R
lvlnboot -v
setboot
setboot -a 52.1.0 # second disk

Re: COPYING LIF FILES
1) replacing all disks?
2) renaming vg00?
Also, what OS version/model are you running?

Re: COPYING LIF FILES
I have an additional comment to Stevens nice cookbook.
The updatediaglif command is only needed to install the Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE) in the LIF fs of the root disk(s). ODE is not nessecary to boot your system. From my point of view, the only advantage of ODE on a root disk is the "mapper2" tool that produces an ioscan-like output of the system.
This ODE tool and many more are also on the Support+ CD. The updatediaglif utility is part of the Online Diagnostic.
mkboot is the only supported tool to install a lif fs (do not use lifcp).
Best regards
Stefan

Re: COPYING LIF FILES
On the other server I had the updatediaglif file to use with the mkboot -b command, but that file is not on this server, so I have had to copy the LIF files from the original to the new disk, which I have done, but when I issue lifls -l /dev/dsk/c4t5d0 all lif files are displayed. but when I issue
lifls /dev/dsk/c4t5d0 it only displays the five default lif files.
So are they all there or not ?

Re: COPYING LIF FILES
It will leave you with a bootable disk, though you should test it prior to removing the other disk.
I did read your question carefully. You might want to end up your work with updatediaglif file, its quite useful.
Try the procedure without that command and see what happens. It won't hurt anything. It will problably solve your issue.

Re: COPYING LIF FILES
mkboot -b /usr/sbin/diag/lif/updatediaglif
command.
I know the system will boot up ok without all the LIFs but I want them anyway! - can I create a file using LIFCP that I can then use with the mkboot command ?
