I am getting ready to remove two volume groups from hp-ux 11.0 so the disk drives can be moved to another server. What hp-ux commands should I run to help me determine if any of the drives are being referenced? I have already checked 'bdf', 'swapinfo' and application raw space usage. What command checks dump space configuration? Anything else? What abount glance?
Thanks,
Jerry

Re: vgexport
lvlnboot -v
to show dump devices.
To check any LVM configuration:
pvdisplay -v

RE: "...What hp-ux commands should I run to help me determine if any of the drives are being referenced? ..."
Not in HP_UX, only solaris or linux. Refer to what processes are attached to what file systems with 'fuser -cu /file system'.
If you want to drill down and id the disk mounted to the file system then you can use pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c.... and note the lv's. Then cross reference the lv's in /etc/fstab to the file system.
Re: "...remove two volume groups from hp-ux 11.0 so the disk drives can be moved to another server. ..."
If you can 'vgchange -a n vg' and deactivate the vg then nothing is attached to the vg. But really, you're going about this backwards. You want to unmount the file system associated to the vg first, and then deactivate the vg.
But then, this is incomplete. In order to move disk between servers you need to 'vgexport -p -m /tmp/vg_map_file -v /dev/vg'. Note the -p option. Without -p you delete the vg out of /dev and out of /etc/lvmtab.
ftp the map file over to the server and import it.
mkdir /dev/vg
mknod group file
vgimport

Re: vgexport
u can use "vgexport", when u wanna remove volume group, the uses will more formally.
# vgchange -a n vgO1
# vgexport vg01
may be that this is true.
