I don't have a cd-rom, but i do have a a few USB 3.0 inputs and after a call to IBM the route I went with was to create a USB MKSYSB (mksysb -iev /dev/usbms0), was able to restore the rootvg using this method.

[Tip] Backup and restore on AIX

Pretty penny's. Just remember that mksysb and savevg are just front-ends for backup. In other words, backups on AIX are organized by volume groups. mksysb is specialized for rootvg and savevg is used for other volume groups. Ignoring that rootvg also creates files needed to boot a system... (1 Reply)

Device::USB::DevEndpoint(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     Device::USB::DevEndpoint(3pm)

Device::USB::DevEndpoint
       This class encapsulates a USB Device endpoint and the methods that object would support.

NAME
Device::USB::DevEndpoint - Access a device endpoint returned by libusb. VERSION
Version 0.11 SYNOPSIS
Device::USB:DevEndpoint provides a Perl object for accessing an endpoint of an interface of a USB device using the libusb library. use Device::USB; my $usb = Device::USB->new(); my $dev = $usb->find_device( $VENDOR, $PRODUCT ); printf "Device: %04X:%04X ", $dev->idVendor(), $dev->idProduct(); $dev->open(); my $cfg = $dev->config()->[0]; my $inter = $cfg->interfaces()->[0]->[0]; my $ep = $inter->endpoints()->[0]; print "Endpoint:", $inter->bEndpointAddress(), " name: ", $dev->get_string_simple($iter->iInterface()), " "; See USB specification for an explanation of the attributes of an endpoint. DESCRIPTION
This module defines a Perl object that represents the data associated with a USB interface endpoint. The object provides read-only access to the important data associated with the endpoint. METHODS There are several accessor methods that return data from the interface. Each is named after the field that they return. These accessors include: bEndpointAddress bmAttributes wMaxPacketSize bInterval bRefresh bSynchAddress DIAGNOSTICS
This is an explanation of the diagnostic and error messages this module can generate. DEPENDENCIES
This module depends on the Carp, Inline and Inline::C modules, as well as the strict and warnings pragmas. Obviously, libusb must be available since that is the entire reason for the module's existence. AUTHOR
