I'm having mechanical problems with my sda disk which has 3 partitions :
/boot
the entire vg00
and swap.
I inserted a new disk (sdb) and partitioned it as the sda.
vg00 - was moved with pvmove.
swap - was moved with swapon/swapoff.
How do I move the /boot partition ?
p.s.
I'm using a RedHat 4.4 with LVM2.
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionYou can use dd to copy the boot file system to the new disk. This will work and can be used to migrate or create a mirror copy of /boot
See the man page for syntax.

Re: Moving to new system disk
If you are going to a new disk device, you may need to update /boot/grub/grub.conf
Take a look at it before you try and boot.
You may need to use the grub utility to update the system configuration.
