Importing cloned EMC disk from one RedHat box to another.
Hello,
I have a volume group on a Redhat ES 3 box that have cloned and need to import on another RedHat ES 3 box to be backed up. The storage device is an EMC Symmetrix.
The error I get when running "vgimport vgname /dev/emcpowerad1" is:
vgimport -- locking logical volume manager
vgimport -- checking volume group name
vgimport -- checking volume group "vghpm" existence
vgimport -- trying to read physical volumes
vgimport -- checking for duplicate physical volumes
vgimport -- checking physical volume name "/dev/emcpowerad1"
vgimport -- reading data of physical volume "/dev/emcpowerad1" from disk
vgimport -- ERROR "pv_read(): read" reading physical volume "/dev/emcpowerad1"
There are 22 disk in the volumegroup, I ran the vgimport for all 22 disk at one time.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
Tom.
