Operating Systems AIX Clone 1 Hard disk fromIBM Intellipoint server with AIX 5.x Post 302998407 by trevian3969 on Wednesday 31st of May 2017 03:59:22 PM

Thank you for your answers. (Ill need to study this commands Smilie)

What Ive done works perfect as you suggested.

Server 1 (IBM aix 5.x with special application)

Server 2 (Same IBM model, with 1 new disk same as used by server 1)

Server 3 (Same IBM model, with 1 new disk, same as used by server 1)

Did the procedure, put the new disk in server 1, run the commands, take out the new disk, put it on server 2 and everything ok. Server 2 is a clone from server 1. Of course I need to change some network parameters to work (Ip, etc). Tested the application and works fine.

Tried to do the same procedure with server 3 based on the new disk cloned (server 2) and receive the errors mentioned.

Maybe it will work if I try to do the same procedure but instead of use the cloned disk, use the original (server 1) and the new from server 3 ?
Thanks again.

BDB.DB0(5)							AFS File Reference							BDB.DB0(5)

NAME
bdb.DB0, bdb.DBSYS1 - Contain the Backup Database and associated log DESCRIPTION
The bdb.DB0 file contains the Backup Database, which records configuration information used by the AFS Backup System along with cross- indexed records of the tapes created and volumes dumped using the Backup System commands. The bdb.DBSYS1 file is a log file in which the Backup Server (buserver process) logs each database operation before performing it. When an operation is interrupted, the Backup Server replays the log to complete the operation. Both files are in binary format and reside in the /var/lib/openafs/db directory on each database server machine that runs the Backup Server. When the Backup Server starts or restarts on a given machine, it establishes a connection with its peers and verifies that its copy of the bdb.DB0 file matches the copy on the other database server machines. If not, the Backup Servers use AFS's distributed database technology, Ubik, to distribute to all of the machines the copy of the database with the highest version number. Use the commands in the backup suite to administer the Backup Database. It is advisable to create a backup copy of the bdb.DB0 file on tape on a regular basis, using the UNIX tar command or another local disk backup utility. SEE ALSO
