Greetings,

We have SuSE linux on an LPAR at our installation.
I want to bring up another Linux LPAR. Thought the best way would be to clone the existing linux.

Is it OK, if i
1.copy the existing volume(s) contents into a new set of volumes
2.Mount these new volumes and change fdasd, zipl.conf, network files with the new volume id's
3.Bring up the new system
4. Make corresponding changes so that LVM groups come up properly

I am not sure how step 4 needs to be done. I have seen some discussion on vgchange last week. Again please let me know your thoughts on achieving this.

Please let me know the steps involved/ precautions to be taken in this exercise.
Also appreciate if pointers are provided to some documentation.

Regards,
Srinivas.
