First, we attach the vmdk to the vm and then scan the bus to see it in linux:
\n# echo “- – -” > \/sys\/class\/scsi_host\/host0\/scan<\/p>\n
In this scenario, \/dev\/sda2 and \/dev\/sdb2 have the same volume group name of VolGroup00, let’s rename \/dev\/sdb2 to VolGroup01:
\n# vgimportclone –basevgname VolGroup01 \/dev\/sdb2<\/p>\n
next let’s find the new VolumeGroup:
\n# vgscan
\n# vgchange -a y<\/p>\n
Now let’s mount the LV we want from the new volume group:
\n# mount \/dev\/VolGroup01\/LogVol02 \/mnt\/restore\/<\/p>\n
Once we’re done, we want to unmount the LV and remove reference to the VG
\n# umount \/mnt\/restore
\n# vgchange -an VolGroup01 (make VG unavailable)
\n# sync<\/p>\n
Remove the drive, wait a few minutes and let’s do a rescan:
\n# vgscan <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
