Yes - wasn't sure if you'd typo'd entering them or these were actually the directory entries..if the latter - yep - you'll be missing 500 cyls on your LVM disks. Anyway - easy mistake .. I assume the correct sizes will make it all work again :) p.s. your 202 should remain 32259 .. it's

Is the clone directory entry a typo? 32259 instead of 32759 ? Your gold image also uses 32259 for the 202 disk.. so a little confusing in the numbers between the 2 directory entries -- I didn't notice this at first glance.. >From what you list - your sizes don't match - but I would think the D

Well - not sure why it won't mount - your directory entries look good... what's the /etc/fstab look like? (fyi - you don't need to format the target volumes -- you're just copying right over the top of all that nice formatting -- you can save yourself this step in the future) Scott Rohling On

Ouch, you are right, I cut and pasted the wrong line. It should have been the /dev/vg1/lv1, sorry about that. However the problem is that in the past we just DDR'd or flashcopied only the three DASD we use and everything worked, has this changed, or am I just missing something? Example (I hop

David, Logical volumes are usually referenced in /etc/fstab by their /dev entry. For example: /dev/opt_vg/opt_lv /opt ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 That is probably why by-path is not an option. Then you write: > caught this when I DDR'd our "golden image" and attempted >

I just discovered a problem that I did not know I had. When building a new server today on 11.2 I discovered it will not allow me to choose "by path" for my logical volumes. We upgraded over 50 servers which all used "by path" with no issues and they seemed to operating fine but when I went b
