Converting LVM to VxVM
Examples
Chapter 232
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 - - - - - -
dm disk01 c0t10d0 - 2079468 - - - -
The list and listvg outputs are from within the vxvmconvert command. vxprint is a command
line command.
Example of the listvg output after conversion of vg08:
LVM VOLUME GROUP INFORMATION
Name Type Physical Volumes
vg00 ROOT c0t5d0
vg09 Non-Root c0t9d0
Volume Group to list in detail: None
NOTE Note that vg08 is no longer listed under LVM information.
Example of the vxvmconvert listvg output after conversion of volume group vg08 to
dg08:
DEVICE DISK GROUP STATUS
c0t5d0 - - online invalid
