> Thak you very much, everyone who responded. The

> the disk symbolic links (ln -s /dev/disk/dsk1c
> dsk1c,
> etc), or have advscan do it for you.

> I did an "advscan -r dsk1c dsk2c dsk3c dsk4c dsk5c
> dsk6c". Those were all the disks that made up the
> file domain, which had just one fileset in it. It
> found a filedomain, and created a directory in
> /etc/fdmns/ named after the disks
> (dsk1c_dsk2c..._domain), and created all the
> symbolic
> links to those disks in that new directory. I did a
> showfsets on the new domain, and sure enough the old
> fileset name was there. I mounted the new
> domain#fileset to a mountpoint. The filesystem was
> empty. I'm thought it had data in it before. I
> removed the filedomain, and then just created a
> directoy in /etc/fdmns, and created all the sym
> links.
> I did a showfdmn on the new filedomain, and again
> saw
> the fileset. Once mounted though, it was empty.
> I'm
> starting to think this filedomain fileset had no
> data
