We have AIX 4.3.3 on S7A. Normally the "rootvg" is mirror (hdisk0 and
hdisk1). Every time we doing "mksysb", we break the mirror and make
backup. unfortunately, after we break the mirror, their has "0516-086
lsvg: Volume group descriptor area has a bad block." message happen. My
questions are:
1. does their has way to fix this problem withour re-install?
2. can I boot from hdisk1 (mirror already break)?
3. any other suggestion?
Thanks.
