Env:
    AIX 3.2.5
    Tape 2.3gb

Desc:
  Customer has three hdisks
  hdisk0 1.37gb
  hdisk1 1.0gb
  hdisk2 2.0gb
  All part of rootvg
   The customer wants to move two of the hdisks to another

      2.  mklv -t boot -y hd5 -a e rootvg 2 hdisk1
      3.  bosboot -ad /dev/hdisk1

      5.  migratepv hdisk2 hdisk1
      6.  migratepv hdisk0 hdisk1
      7.  reducevg rootvg hdisk0 hdisk2
            this hung for about 40 minutes before the command
            had to be killed with a kill -9

      8.  shutdown -Fr
      9.  reducevg rootvg hdisk2
            That worked
      10. reducevg rootvg hdisk0    failed with this error:
          0516-022: lqyerypv: illegal structure of parameter value
          0516-884: reducevg: Unable to remove physical volume hdisk6

      11. lqueryvg -Atp hdisk1 --> did not show hdisk1 in the VG
      12. lspv     got the pvid for hdisk0, still showed in VG
      13. putlvodm -P \ 
      14. lspv   showed hdisk2 and hdisk0 as NONE 
             Which is the correct results
      15. sysdumpdev -Pp /dev/hd7
      16. Created the vg, lvs, filesystems and restored the data
