Thanks methyl & Peasant ,
Apologies for confusion!!
Am new on HP-UX ..
methyl that is annotation (Java application)...sorry for typo .
-> We have a Hp-UX server with installed applications (application data resides on SAN (as vg01) ), Requirement is to clone the existing system and SAN data on local HDD, move the server to other location and run as standalone for few months .
-> The new system have same H/W specification .
-> Installed Applications configurations are distributed on both VG00 and VG01
## Have mirrored the disk as mentioned in my last post ..but am worried have missed some steps ...
Active disk: c0t2d0 and c1t2d0
New Disk : c2t0do
# pvcreate -B /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0
# vgextend -f /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
# mkboot /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0
# mkboot -a "hpux -lq (;0)/stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0
## Mirror Process
# lvextend -m 2 /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
## Write Script
# cat lvmirr.sh
for i in 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do
lvextend -m 2 /dev/vg00/lvol${i} /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
--> Why -m 2 :> Because current mirror number is 1 i.e 2 disks are already active mode state
done
# lvlnboot -v
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 (0/0/1/1.2.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c2t2d0 (0/0/2/0.2.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0 (0/0/2/0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

Root: lvol3 on: /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

/dev/dsk/c2t2d0
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0
Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c1t2d0, 0
## Then Have removed this disk from Server-A and instared on Server-B .. (Have to remove that disk from VG00 to get rid of error )
I missed to take-screen-shot of actual error .
That got automatically reboot after below prompt msg on boot
Processor is booting from first available device.
To discontinue, press any key within 10 seconds.
Boot
: disk(0/0/1/1.2.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix
10723328 + 1888256 + 4559768 start 0x1f90e8
alloc_pdc_pages: Relocating PDC from 0xffff800000 to 0x7fa00000.
--> restarted with rechecking status of io.memory and processor ..
==> With ignite backup restore as I understand I require to have tape drive but I don't have any tape drive stot available with my server it's old 2003 made model: 9000/800/L3000-7x
Also am worried that it will not take restoration of my application configuration .. Please let me know if that can also be possibale without tape drive .
Please help me if am wrong somewhere ...
