mv lvol to new name while file system is mounted on Integrity 11.23

[Aren]

Hello LVM forum, I have an SG configuration where the active VG/lvol doesn't match the file system mount section on the .cntl file so I want to `mv ` so failover will not get confused when trying to mount it. can I move it on the fly with above command while the file system is in use and mounted as I could with (PARISC) 11.i or is this a no-no or different procedure on 11.23? also, anybody have links to a good set of docs on the differences between Integrity and HP9000 OE? many thanks, Aren

I haven't notice many differences with LVM under Integrity, so I think you would be safe in moving lvol names on the fly. (although I doubt HP would recommend making any SG changes without testing!)

The biggest differences I have seen are with the root disk mirroring process. Integrity is very different, and a bit more complex. It is WELL documented here on ITRC, so I won't bother recapping. (search knowledge base for "mirror root drive", or similar)

Another difference is the inability to boot an Integrity system directly from a make_tape_recovery tape. If you use IgniteUX, you may want to read up on that procedure as well. (again, there is a workaround posted in knowledge base).
