Changing the boot disk

I have an HP-UX 11.00 and I want to change my small boot disk. The new one is big, and I want to tansfer all the information including the operating system.
How can I do that?
Thaks!

Re: Changing the boot disk

You can use LVM and Mirror/UX to do this.

Mirror the data over to the new drive(s), then remove the original drive(s). You can then grow any JFS filesystems by increasing the size of the lv and growing the fs.

You'll need to RTFM about LVM and Mirror/UX a bit for details.

Good luck!
No matter where you go, there you are.
