    Seems OK. Evidently, the info on the VGs is different ?

    Folks,

    We are going to sawp a system from a 9980 disk farm
    to a 9960 disk farm temporarily for some testing

    We have performed the following:

    mksysb
    Backup all other volume groups to TSM

    Here's the plan:

    export the volume groups except rootvg
    remove the volume groups
    physically disconnect the 9980 disk farm
    connect the 9960 disk farm
    do our testing (It will overwrite rootvg)
    reconnect the 9980 disk farm
    restore rootvg through mksysb
    import the volume groups

    Does this sound correct?

    Thanks!
