[Veritas-vx] importing a DG fails

[Frank_DeMontier@ssga.com]

Rick-

Run: vxdisk list c1t1d0s2

Sixth line down will start with group: name=qalibb01 id=#####...

Try vxdg import using the id #'s in the above examples, eg:

vxdg import 981047312.5209.qalibb01

That should work. If not, use the force flag ( as long as no other node
hass access to the devices )

vxdg -Cf import 98104...

Good luck!

I've deported a disk group on and old server and migrated the filesystem to
a new server. Problem is, I cannot import the diskgroup.  The error is:

 #vxdg import qalibb01
vxvm:vxdg: ERROR: Disk group qalibb01: import failed: Disk group has no
valid configuration copies



# vxdisk -o alldgs list
DEVICE       TYPE      DISK         GROUP        STATUS
c0t12d0s2    sliced    rootdisk     rootdg       online
c0t13d0s2    sliced    disk01       rootdg       online
c1t1d0s2     sliced    -           (qalibb01)    online
c2t1d0s2     sliced    -           (qalibb01)    online


What am I forgetting to do here??
