Is it possible in 4.3.3 to use savevg to backup only uservg structure without user data files? Ultimately want the backup to go to CD.
 
If your data files are in a separate jfs - umount it and then do the savevg.
 
to add to mickell's:

after running mkvgdata, the file you want to backup is /tmp/vgdata/vgname/vgname.data
