3
Refresh the plexes of the snapshot volume using the following command:
# vxsnap -g datadg refresh snapvol source=yes syncing=yes
4
The applications can now be unquiesced.
If you temporarily suspended updates to the volume by a database in 2, release
all the tables from hot backup mode.
5
Use the vxsnap syncwait command to wait for the synchronization to
complete:
# vxsnap -g datadg syncwait snapvol
6
Check the integrity of the file system, and then mount it on a suitable mount
point:
# fsck -F vxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/datadg/snapvol
# mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/datadg/snapvol /mnt
7
Confirm whether the file system can be converted to the target operating
system:
# fscdstask validate Linux /mnt
8
Unmount the snapshot:
# umount /mnt
9
Convert the file system to the opposite endian:
# fscdsconv -f /tmp/fs_recov/recov.file /dev/vx/dsk/datadg/snapvol
This step is only required if the source and target systems have the opposite
endian configuration.
10
Split the snapshot volume into a new disk group, migdg, and deport that disk
group:
# vxdg split datadg migdg snapvol
# vxdg deport migdg
11
Import the disk group, migdg, on the Linux system:
# vxdg import migdg
It may be necessary to reboot the Linux system so that it can detect the disks.
