Well, it might work.
If you are not allowed access to the production server, can you ask for some details about it? The output of lsvg -l rootvg would be really useful. I'm assuming that you haven't acquired a mksysb media illegally, of course.......
If you have space and servers, what I have seen done is to read in the image to a NIM server that you can then use to provision a new cloned server and you get the chance to resize/move the logical volumes at that point. You would need a NIM server and plenty of disk space and disks to restore to on it & the eventual target.

Hello Guys,
Can before and after snapshots be used to verify successful filesystem restoration?
snapshots will be created using fssnaps and restoration is thru legato restore?
Any ideas on this? or any other ways I could verify that restoration is good?
