restore data after system crash
Hi all,

I have a server running HP-UX 11i V1 (11.11).
We had a problem with the system disk which cannot boot and the recovery with the CD failed too.
the only solution was to re-install the system on a new disk.

The problem now is to get access to the data which are on other disks, not damaged.
These disks were managed by LVM.
My question is : how can I do to get back my data. I try to restore the volume groups with sam but it is not enough.
Could anybody help me or give me the reference of a HP book explaining how to do ?
Thanks in advance.

Worth a read, but you will be advised to contact your support agency with all the facts:

Don't forget to mention whether the system disc was under LVM control, whether you have MirrorDisk/UX installed, and whether there was a mirror of all Logical Volumes on the system disc.
