Operating Systems AIX AIX break rootvg mirror from system down Post 302942292 by rbatte1 on Monday 27th of April 2015 07:43:41 AM

I've never managed to span DVD media for a mksysb. How big was your rootvg? Did you have stuff other than just the base OS? (and perhaps your backup software)

I have restored a mirrored rootvg to a single disk, but that was planned in advance and we adjust the backup process.
