clone disk group
Greetings, I need to migrate disk groups between hosts. The current aging server runs vxvm 5.x on solaris 10. The proposed work loads are to be taken on by a combination of Solaris 11 and Solaris 10...
You can use the 'split' option of VxVM Disk Group Split and Join feature.
A full volume snapshot is made of each volume which you can then split off to a new diskgroup and import on different host.
Search for 'Disk Group Split/Join' in https://origin-download.veritas.com/resources/content/live/DOCUMENTATION/SFDC/000109276/en_US/infoscale_solutions_71_sol.pdf
