How to convert a voulme group to LVM2

[sreeram n]

Hi Admins,

Is it possible to convert a traditional LVM1 VG to LVM2 in hpux 11.31.

If yes, what are the steps to do that?.

Thanks
Sree

if you have a recent version (minimum March 2009), there should be a command vgversion to assist you with this

man 1m vgversion

hi sreeram

first check the version using # vgdisplay vg01

check the review of the migration using
# vgversion -r

#vgversion -V -r -v

finally change the vgversion using

#vgversion -v -V

Thanks for your reply.

My current release is older one and vgversion command is not there.
Is there any patch update for this command?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks
Sree
