@Soundappan

I'm not going to install anything on the server, Just wanted to know a wa to identify the 2 VG's OS version before removing them

@Bakunin

Can you confirm which mountpoint you are referring to as I'm not able to do operations with the 2 VG's ( Since its inactive) Not sure how to identify the mountpoints.


Btw . I have identified one more way to find the Version on AIX in the altinst_rootvg by the help of the contents of the below 2 files

/var/adm/ras/alt_disk_inst.log
/var/adm/ras/altinst_rootvg.log
