vxfsconvert

HI Admins,

I need your help to resolve one issue.
I am migrating one hpux11.11 box to a superdom partion running hpux11.23. The method of migration we are using is EMC open migrator.
When I tried to mount the filesystems, 79 out of 131 gives the error "This image is incompatible with this system". This error is due to the vxfs version of migrated fs. (I had converted the fs using vxfsconvert earlier).
But this time I was able to convert ony 3 filesystems. rest of the filesystems are giving below errors.
error No1 for some FSs.
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxfsconvert /dev/NEW_PS_dbvg9/rfs_dinea_rdbm3

Memory fault(coredump)

Error No2.
#/opt/VRTS/bin/vxfsconvert /dev/NEW_PS_dbvg1/fs_dfsdmordbm1

UX:vxfs vxfsconvert: ERROR: V-3-21711: Failed to balloc 1, 0x6, 17056, 1

UX:vxfs vxfsconvert: INFO: V-3-21781: CONVERSION FAILED

UX:vxfs vxfsconvert: INFO: V-3-21782: An additional 2802K bytes required to complete the conversion.

I extended the filesystems and again tried to convert it again. but no luck.

Have any one faced similar problem earlier.

Thanks in advance

Regards
Sreeram
