If I have understood you correctly , you have successfully build the new server using the mksysb of your physical server and now facing the challenges in moving the data from VG01 on the new server . Don't you have TSM/Netbackup setup in your environment , you can simply backup and restore the VG01's filesystems from your physical machine and get it restored on the new LPAR ( of course you need to get the new LPAR registerd with TSM/Netbackup ) . OR as Ross suggested , if the data is on SAN disks , export the volume group , map the luns ( thru VIO ) server on new LPAR and import the vg . But if VG is created on internal disks , then NFS export the VG01's filesystem and mount them on new server and run copy over the data for each filesystem into respective new filesystems in new LPAR.

Hope it help you
