    You could use "splitlvcopy" I would think.

    We rs6000 running aix 4.3.3 with and oracle database. We don't want to
    shut the database down to do cold backups every month because of the
    downtime. We currently use volume group mirroring to keep 2 copies of the
    database. Is it possible in aix to unmirror the volume group then mount
    the unactive mirror set on another aix box then do a cold back of those
    disks. Then mirror them again on the production server once the back up is
    completed on the other server. We have SAN so the disk are accessible to
    both nodes. We currently do this on our vms system which has a large
    oracle database but we want to do the same thing on our ais systems.

    If this is possible please explain, how.

    Thanks
