Rob,
You might need to use this:
-o, --oldpath OldPhysicalVolumePath
If the path to the physical volume has changed
between backup time and
restore time, this option enables you to choose the
corresponding physical
volume path in the backup file.

Subject: vgcfgrestore -o
Hey everyone,
I'm having some difficulties... kernel 2.4.19 and lvm 3.0.6. I'm
trying to restore a vg config . On the cfg backup the original pv was
/dev/dasdt1 (PV UUID last digits KgtiDw). The current pv is /dev/dasdu1
and I mucked up the VGDA on that PV so that it has another PV UUID).
Now I'm trying to fix it...
vgcfgrestore -f /etc/lvmconf/vgdata.conf.1.old --name vgdata -o
/dev/dasdt1 -v /dev/dasdu1
says
vgcfgrestore -- "/dev/dasdu1" may not be an actual physical volume of
volume group "vgdata"
Why can't I get LVM to just write the /dev/dasdt1 backup onto the
/dev/dasdu1 VGDA??
Thanks,
Rob
