Christian,
You will need to break the mirrors on the mksysb image first before you can
restore it to any system. I have a three pages instruction on how to
accomplish this. I can fax it to you if you want. It'll take me forever to
type three pages here.

Subject: mksysb restore "not enough disk space selected"
I'm trying to do a mksysb restore from a system with 2 18GB mirrored rootvg
drives to a new machine with 2 36GB drives. When the system boots from the
mksysb and starts the install it reports the following error:
"not enough disk space selected to contain os"
There has to be enough space on the new disk, its twice the size of the old
one. Has anyone else seen this or
know of a workaround?
Thanks,
Christian Lair
