vgimport -v -m /tmp/vg01.mymap /dev/vg01 \

/dev/dsk/c0t5d0 /dev/dsk/c0t7d0

Import the volume group /dev/vg02 using the mapﬁle ﬁle,

/tmp/vg02.mymap

. mymap was previ-

ously speciﬁed by the

vgexport command on another system. The volume group,

/dev/vg02,is

speciﬁed in

mymap and will be shared among the exporting system, this system, and other systems

importing the volume group as shared:

vgimport -v -s -m /tmp/vg02.mymap /dev/vg02

Import the volume group /dev/vg02 using the inﬁle,

/tmp/vg02.infile

. infile was previously

speciﬁed by the

vgexport command on another system, and it assumes that pv_paths in the

/tmp/vg02.infile

are identical on both systems.

vgimport -v -f /tmp/vg02.infile /dev/vg02

Import the volume group /dev/vg01 using the mapﬁle ﬁle,

/tmp/vg01.mymap

and the -C option.

mymap was previously speciﬁed by the

vgexport command on another system. The volume group,

/dev/vg01, is speciﬁed in

mymap and will be used by the importing system only:

vgimport -S -C -m /tmp/vg01.mymap /dev/vg01

Upon successful completion of the command, /dev/vg01 will contain cluster DSFs in the imported sys-

tem in place of persistent DSFs contained in the mymap mapﬁle.
