Couldn't parse MAPFILE "/tmp/vg01.map"

Hi,

I need to restore one vg. I have 12 disks, 1 disk its new, with one pvcreate, and I have de file.map with the 12 disks original.

When I do the vgimport, it says me:

vgimport -v -m /tmp/vg01.map /dev/vg01 /dev/dsk/c5t10d0 /dev/dsk/c5t11d0 /dev/dsk/c5t12d0 /dev/dsk/c5t13d0 /dev/dsk/c5t14d0 /dev/dsk/c5t15d0 /dev/dsk/c0t11d0 /dev/dsk/c0t12d0 /dev/dsk/c0t13d0 /dev/dsk/c0t14d0 /dev/dsk/c0t15d0 /dev/dsk/c0t10d0

Beginning the import process on Volume Group "/dev/vg01".
Logical volume "/dev/vg01/VGID" has been successfully created
with lv number 1.
Couldn't parse MAPFILE "/tmp/vg01.map".

What could I do?

Thanks a lot of!

Carmen.

Does /tmp/vg01.map exist?  The map file is used only to supply logical volume names and numbers if they are different from standard.  The standard is lvolnn where nn is the logical volume minor number.  If your LV names follow the standard you do not need to specify a map at all.
