Probably you down`t have any valid LVCB-Data, because you overwrote them some time ago.
Compare working LVCBs with the invalid by entering:
getlvcb -ATi lv_name
If you get correct data in every field, everything is o.k.,
if not, somebody has overwritten the data during copying the data from the installed fs to raw devices.

Good luck
Uwe

Betreff: mklvcopy 0516-622

On my AIX 4.3.3 ML 10 system I have an oracle 7.3 raw volume database built on an SSA RAID 5 array.

I have now added 2 new D40 drawers to the system, and built RAID 0 arrays within each drawer.

I have added the RAID 0 arrays into the volume group and am transferring the raw volumes from the RAID 5 array to the RAID 0 arrays (ie mirror through the LVM).

When I run e.g.
mklvcopy FINLar01 3 hdisk3 hdisk8

I get ...
0516-622 mklvcopy: Warning, cannot write lv control block data.

Everything seems ok and allows me to synvg the volumes, but what does the warning mean ?

I can't find it on my 4.3.3 doc CD and google did'nt help either. I have not been brave enough to remove the LV copy from the RAID 5 array yet.

Any ideas ?
