VERITAS Volume Manager 3.1 Migration Guide

Converting LVM to VxVM
Examples
Chapter 2 53
vg05 Non-Root c4t5d0
vg03 Non-Root c4t3d0 c4t2d0
vg08 Non-Root c4t8d0
Select Volume Groups to convert :
[<pattern-list>,all,list,listvg,q,?] vg08
vg08
Convert this Volume Group? [y,n,q,?] (default: y)
Name a new disk group [<group>,list,q,?] (default: dg08)
The following disk has been found in the vg08 volume
group and will
be configured for conversion to a VxVM disk group.
c4t8d0
A new disk group dg08 will be created and the disk device
c4t8d0
will be converted and added to the disk group with the
disk
name dg0801.
The c4t8d0 disk has been configured for conversion.
The first stage of the conversion operation has
completed
successfully. If you commit to the changes hereafter,
the
system will attempt to unmount all of the associated
file
systems, stop and export each Volume Group, and then
attempt to
complete the conversion without having to reboot the
system. If
we are unable to stop and export any of the Volume
Groups, then
the conversion process will not be able to complete
without a
reboot. You would then be given the choice to either
abort the
conversion, or finish the conversion by rebooting the
system.
The conversion process will update the /etc/fstab file
so that
volume devices are used to mount the file systems on
this disk
