@vbe

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I should have provided the information.



OS: AIX 7.1 TL 04 SP 06
Middleware: WAS 8.x

Database: DB2 11.x


we use only 1 IP per LPAR. We do not have Mirrored vg as of now.
But, We usually add a (on demand) new disk (alt_disk_copy/clone) during OS upgrades.



Thank you.

NAME
vparefiutil - display, update, or delete HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mappings of bootable disks in the virtual partition database SYNOPSIS
db_file] hw_path] DESCRIPTION
The command displays the HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mappings that are stored in the virtual partition database. Legacy and agile hardware paths will be displayed, if available, as provided by HP-UX. If the virtual partition database is not specified, then the live database or by default is used. It can also be used to update the hw_path to EFI_path mappings from to the database. The behavior without any options is to display the HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mappings. This command is not supported on PA-RISC systems. Options and Arguments recognizes the following command line options and arguments: Specifies the alternate database from which the HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mappings need to be displayed, updated, or deleted. or live is default if this is not specified. Updates the database from the info available (from Displays the HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mapping in machine readable format. Each mapping is displayed in a separate line as follows: Deletes the HP-UX hardware path to EFI path mappings in the database. Note: In live database, this deletes only the HP-UX hardware paths owned by the vpar on which this command is executed. If this is specified, only the HP-UX hardware paths at or below the given hw_path are displayed, updated, or deleted. SECURITY RESTRICTIONS
This command is restricted to processes owned by superuser. RETURN VALUE
returns the following values: Successful completion. Error condition occurred. EXAMPLES
Display the hw_path to EFI_path mappings from the live database. # vparefiutil Hardware path - EFI path mapping ================================ Hardware path : 2.0.0.2.0.6.0 : 2.0.0.2.0.6.0 EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(2|0)/Scsi(Pun6,Lun0)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.0.3.0.6.0 : 2.0.0.3.0.6.0 EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(3|0)/Scsi(Pun6,Lun0)/ HD(Part1,Sig471031FC-6A12-11D9-8002-D6217B60E588)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.0.3.1.2.0 : 2.0.0.3.1.2.0 EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(3|1)/Scsi(Pun2,Lun0)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.8.1.0.3.4.0.0.1.6 : 2.0.8.1.0.0x50001fe1500339ed.0x1000000000000 EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,28C)/Pci(1|0)/Pci(4|0)/ Fibre(WWN50001FE1500339ED,Lun1000000000000)/ HD(Part1,Sig9FEF4B40-6AC7-11D9-8002-D6217B60E588)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.12.1.0.4.1.8.0 : EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,2C6)/Pci(1|0)/Pci(4|1)/Scsi(Pun8,Lun0)/ HD(Part1,Sig00F95EE2-66C4-11D9-8002-D6217B60E588)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.12.1.0.4.1.10.0 : EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,2C6)/Pci(1kk0)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI Hardware path : 2.0.12.1.0.4.1.12.0 : EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,2C6)/Pci(1|0)/Pci(4|1)/Scsi(PunC,Lun0)/ HD(Part1,Sig4D70B9D6-6AD5-11D9-8002-D6217B60E588)/EFIHPUXHPUX.EFI # vparefiutil Hardware path -
