A way to wake up a volume group for data access between the alternate disk and<br />

the original rootvg and also a way to put the volume group back to sleep is<br />

provided.<br />

The syntax for the wake-up function is:<br />

# alt_disk_install -W <br />

Note, the volume group that will experience the wake-up will be renamed<br />

altinst_rootvg.<br />

The booted volume group’s version of <strong>AIX</strong> must be later or equal to the version of<br />

<strong>AIX</strong> on the volume group that will undergo the wake-up. This may mean that you<br />

will need to boot from the altinst_rootvg and wake-up the old_rootvg.<br />
