Creating or Editing an LVM Information File
An LVM information file is created by the mkvginfo command as part of all
SysBack backups that contain LVM (logical volume manager) information. This file
is then used either when reinstalling the system from a backup or recreating
volume groups, logical volumes, or filesystems from a backup.
You might want to create your own LVM information file and tailor it to your
needs. This customized LVM information file can then be placed on the backup by
using the -g flag to either the sysback, mkvgback, mkjfsback or mklvback
commands. The customized LVM information file can also be written to a diskette
and used to replace the information on an existing system backup during a system
installation. Refer to “Creating a Custom Installation Diskette” on page 16-19 in
this chapter for additional details.
To edit an existing LVM information file or create a new LVM information file from
the information on the current system and edit the new file:
1. From the Utilities menu, select Create or Edit an LVM Information File.
2. Enter the name of an existing file or the name of a new file to create.
3. Select the type of backup for the new file. Choose from the following types:
S System Backup
P Power System Backup
V Volume Group Backup
L Logical Volume or Filesystem Backup
Select the type of file to create based on the backup the file will be used with.
If you select a type that does not match the actual backup media, errors can
prevent the backup media from being restored properly.
