access data from a new disk was assigned another rootvg
Hello,
I try to access to data after connect a new disk (hdisk1) to a AIX 7.1 system
This new disk was assigned to a rootvg from another AIX 6.1 system.
It seem not assigned to any vg
Quote:
# lspv
hdisk0 00c80d35517d435f rootvg active
hdisk1 00c80d35577935af None
but if I tried to assigned hdisk1 to rootvg i get :
Quote:
# extendvg rootvg hdisk1
0516-1398 extendvg: The physical volume hdisk1, appears to belong to
another volume group. Use the force option to add this physical volume
to a volume group.
0516-792 extendvg: Unable to extend volume group.
Data seem to be always here ... ouf ;-)
