Hello again,
Q1
The directory
/tmp/vgdata is only created by a
savevg (or
mksysb) and is not in use during normal running. Not a problem to open volume groups, mounted filesystems etc.
Q2
Yes, you can copy the file
/disaster/datavg.structure (or whatever you choose to call it) to the target server. It is just a data file, so you could also rename it if you wish. You might need to be careful on how you copy it. Do a
cksum on the file on the source and on the target to make sure it transferred without error. Consider it as a binary file.
Q3
You have three choices:-
- Update before backup
Here you would run the savevg, then edit a file in /tmp/vgdata and re-run the savevg command
- Update before restore
Here you would (on the target server) extract the details from the datavg.structure file into a script and edit them before executing - can be a bit slow
- Update after restore
After running the restvg (assuming no LV or FS conflicts) then you rename the filesystems as you wish with a chfs command and remount
Which would you prefer? If you have no preference, then I would suggest we look at option 3.

DESCRIPTION
The line command copies one line, up to and including a newline, from standard input and writes it to standard output. Use this command
within a shell command file to read from your terminal. The line command always writes at least a newline character.
NOTES
The line utility has no internationalization features and is marked LEGACY in XCU Issue 5. Use the read utility instead.
EXIT STATUS
Success. End-of-File.
EXAMPLES
To read a line from the keyboard and append it to a file, enter: echo 'Enter comments for the log:' echo ': c' line >>log
This shell procedure displays the message: Enter comments for the log:
It then reads a line of text from the keyboard and adds it to the end of the file log. The echo ': c' command displays a : (colon)
prompt. See the echo command for information about the c escape sequence.
