I mean, without multibos, how do you restore from the previous state?
If I have 5.3 TL7 sp2 and I update it to 5.3 TL7 sp4 and something goes wrong with my application. How do I go back to 5.3 TL7 sp2? Re-install 5.3 TL7 sp2, that's it. Or restore from backup.
My problem with multibos is that the /usr is already full and there's no more room to increase IT and I have no budget until next year. So I can't use multibos on my OS.
I hope this clear now and my apology for unclear question!
Thanks again and more power!

Hi All,
Is multibos really needed on each sp update on a hacmp config?
Is someone using it?
I have an up coming update and I don't have time to understand this technology. Does SP update might screw you up and you can't restore properly from it?
Thanks for any idea in advance. (1 Reply)

vgcfgrestore
VGCFGRESTORE(8) System Manager's Manual VGCFGRESTORE(8)
NAME
vgcfgrestore - restore volume group descriptor area
SYNOPSIS
vgcfgrestore [-d|--debug] [-f|--file filename] [-l[l]|--list] [-h|--help] [-M|--Metadatatype1|2] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName
DESCRIPTION
vgcfgrestore allows you to restore the metadata of VolumeGroupName from a text backup file produced by vgcfgbackup. You can specify a
backup file with --file. If no backup file is specified, the most recent one is used. Use --list for a list of the available backup and
archive files of VolumeGroupName.
OPTIONS
-l | --list -- List files pertaining to VolumeGroupName
List metadata backup and archive files pertaining to VolumeGroupName. May be used with the -f option. Does not restore Vol-
umeGroupName.
-f | --file filename -- Name of LVM metadata backup file
Specifies a metadata backup or archive file to be used for restoring VolumeGroupName. Often this file has been created with vgcfg-
backup.
See lvm for common options.
REPLACING PHYSICAL VOLUMES
vgdisplay --partial --verbose will show you the UUIDs and sizes of any PVs that are no longer present. If a PV in the VG is lost and you
wish to substitute another of the same size, use pvcreate --restorefile filename --uuid uuid (plus additional arguments as appropriate) to
initialise it with the same UUID as the missing PV. Repeat for all other missing PVs in the VG. Then use vgcfgrestore --file filename to
restore the volume group's metadata.
