Dumping the FS with ACL to another FS - local system

Hi,

We want to copy the entire FS from one lvol to another lvol which resides on diff vg. We want to copy along with acl. Both FS source and target is in same system in different vg. Is there any way we can dump the FS w/o changing acl. We have lot of acl's set on this FS.

Regards

Jay

Hi,

I assume the source filesystem is of type vxfs.
- Create the new filesystem created on the new lvol
- mount it
- umount the old filesystem
- then use these commands:
cd /new/mount/point
xvdump 0f - /dev/vgOLDxx/lvolOLDyy | vxrestore xf -

Look at the man-pages of vxrestore and vxdump for details.

Hi,

used the following command to copy the vxfs fs with acl..

#cd /new_fs

#vxdump -0f - /data | vxrestore -xf -

Thanks
