VERITAS Volume Manager 3.1 Migration Guide

Converting LVM to VxVM
Examples
Chapter 2 55
Example: list, listvg, and vxprint outputs of an
LVM volume group before and after conversion
The examples given below, shows the vxvmconvert listvg, list, and
vxprint output for an LVM volume group vg08 converted to a VxVM
disk group dg08.
Example of the vxvmconvert listvg output before conversion of
volume group vg08:
LVM VOLUME GROUP INFORMATION
NAME TYPE PHYSICAL VOLUME
vg00 ROOT c0t5d0
vg08 Non-Root c0t8d0
vg09 Non-Root c0t9d0
Example of the vxvmconvert list output which shows the disk
devices on a system:
DEVICE DISK GROUP STATUS
c0t5d0 - - online
c0t8d0 - - LVM
c0t9d0 - - LVM
c0t10d0 disk01 rootdg online
c0t11d0 - - online
Disk group: rootdg
What does vxmvconvert list display? The
device
indicates a
physical disk, a
disk
with a name indicates if the disk is under VxVM
control, a
group
shows the disk group name, and the
status
indicates if
it is an LVM disk. If the status is
online
, that means VxVM
acknowledges the disk but doesn’t have it under its control.
Example of the vxprint output before conversion:
TY NAME ASSOC KSTATE LENGTH PLOFFS
STATE
TUTIL0 PUTIL0
dg rootdg rootdg - - - -
