AIX's restorevgfiles
Seek help from all experts,
I understand that if I perform a savevg on a VG, and later perform a restvg to another hdisk, I will get back a exact same VG that I perform savevg earlier. It will be identical even on permission bit, owner and group.
However, if I perform a restorevgfiles for a filesystem from the same savevg file, will I get a identical filesystem? In terms of permission and owner and group will be identical as well?
