.TH VGIMPORTCLONE 8 "LVM TOOLS #VERSION#" "Red Hat, Inc." \" -*- nroff -*-

.SH NAME
|
|
vgimportclone \- import and rename duplicated volume group (e.g. a hardware snapshot)
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B vgimportclone
|
|
.RB [ \-n | \-\-basevgname

|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
vgimportclone is used to import a duplicated VG (e.g. hardware snapshot).
|
|
Duplicate VG(s) and PV(s) are not able to be used until they are made
|
|
to coexist with the origin VG(s) and PV(s).
|
|
vgimportclone renames the VG associated with the specified PV(s) and
|
|
changes the associated VG and PV UUIDs.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for common options.
|
|
.TP

|
.BR \-n ", " \-\-basevgname " " \fIVolumeGroupName
|
|
By default the snapshot VG will be renamed to the original name plus a
|
|
numeric suffix to avoid duplicate naming (e.g. 'test_vg' would be renamed
|
|
to 'test_vg1'). This option will override the base VG name that is
|
|
used for all VG renames. If a VG already exists with the specified name
|
|
a numeric suffix will be added (like the previous example) to make it unique.
|
|

.BR \-i ", " \-\-import
|
|
Import exported Volume Groups. Otherwise VGs that have been exported
|
|
will not be changed (nor will their associated PVs).
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B LVM_BINARY
|
|
The LVM2 binary to use. Defaults to "lvm".
|
|
.SH Examples
|
|
The origin VG "vg00" has origin PVs "/dev/sda" and "/dev/sdb"
|
|
and the respective snapshot PVs are "/dev/sdc" and "/dev/sdd".
|
|
To rename the VG associated with "/dev/sdc" and "/dev/sdd"
|
|
from "vg00" to "vg00_snap"
|
|
(and to change associated VG and PV UUIDs) do:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.B vgimportclone --basevgname vg00_snap /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
