Hi Gurus,

I have a Bad disk (bad Media) which is running under Veritas Volume
Manager Control (Vxvm 3.2). When I try to copy files from that file
system it give me an I/O error.The volume is Stripe. Is there a way I
can recover the data by just replacing the disk or need to go through a
procedure?

1) Replace a Bad Disk

2) Delete the Stripe Volume

3) Create a new Stripe Volume

4) Restore Data from Backup

Also I had setup a vxvm-recover script to send me an email alert if
there is any failure occurs but it didn't sent me any notification. I am
able to send test email from that box but VXVM didn't sent me any alert.
Is there is any other place I need to setup email notification from
Vxvm?

Below is the output of vxrpint:

below is the snippet of vxvm-recover script:

# start the watch daemon. This sends E-mail to the administrator when

# any problems are found. To change the address used for sending
problem

# reports, change the argument to vxrelocd.

vxrelocd netops@citadon.com &

# to enable hot sparing instead of hot relocation.

# ( comment out vxrelocd before uncommenting vxspare )

Any help/Pointer will be greatly appreciated

Will Summarize.

TIA
