QUESTION:
Is there a way to change the name of a user defined Volume Group w/o
deleting it and recreating it?
---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ---------- ----------
A: Yes, there is a simple way you can do this. Below are the necessary
steps to take to rename a non rootvg volume group:
1) Unmount all filesystems that are part of the VG.
2) Enter the command: "varyoffvg OldVGName".
3) Enter the command: "exportvg OldVGName".
4) Enter the command: "smit importvg". Enter the new VG name, and the
physical volumes that belong to that VG. (This command will
automatically vary on the VG, if you so desire).
5) Mount all the filesystems that are part of the new VG.
