All,

I used an alt_disk_install disk to sucessfully migrate to 5.2, while
keeping a copy of 4.3.3. After the upgrade i wanted to remove the 4.3.3
altinst_rootvg to put the disk back in rootvg.

But instead of just typing 'alt_disk_install -X' to get rid of the
altinst_rootvg VG, i accidentally typed 'alt_disk_install -X rootvg' which
removed the rootvg entry from ODM.

All the data is still there, like the man page says, so i'm ok for now.
But i need the magic odm* commands to fix rootvg now... ie what would be
the reverse of 'alt_disk_install -X rootvg'. Any tips are GREATLY
appreciated. thanks.

ray
