Removing the Root Disk from VxVM Control

If the system's root disk is under VxVM control, use the following command to copy its contents to a new LVM root disk:


/etc/vx/bin/vxres_lvmroot -v -b [-p c#t#d#2,c#t#d#3,...] c#t#d#

where c#t#d# is the access name of the new LVM root disk. If the root disk volumes are distributed over several disks, use the -p option to specify a comma-separated list of additional disks that are to be used to set up the LVM root volume group. The operation to clone a new LVM root volume group can take some time, so the -v (verbose) option is specified to show how far this has progressed.
