Ouch, you are right, I cut and pasted the wrong line.  It should have been the 
/dev/vg1/lv1, sorry about that.  However the problem is that in the past we 
just DDR'd or flashcopied only the three DASD we use and everything worked, has 
this changed, or am I just missing something?

Example (I hope  this formats right)

DASD  "gold"                    DASD "new clone"

C74d                    -->     BA4D
        191     
        202 OS 

C650    LVM             -->     BB50
C651    LVM             -->     BC4A


Maybe I should not have attended college in the 70's..?

Subject: Re: sles11.2 mount logical volumes by path

David,

Logical volumes are usually referenced in /etc/fstab by their /dev entry.
For example:

  /dev/opt_vg/opt_lv   /opt                 ext3       acl,user_xattr   1
2

That is probably why by-path is not an option.

Then you write:

> up and it cannot find  and mount
> " /dev/disk/by-path/ccw-0.0.0202-part1 /                    ext3
acl,user_xattr        1 1

This entry does not look like a logical volume, rather a conventional file 
system on a minidisk.

To clone Linux systems that contain LVs with DDR, just copy all the PVs 
(minidisks).  Linux will put the PVs, VGs and LVs back together on the clone.

Hope this helps.
