mksysb restore - different disk size

[kramJ]

When I restore a mksysb image to a different server I get:
The data file indicated that all logical volumes should be created exactly as they were before, but the disks are not the same as they were on the source system.

I must press one to continue. How can I avoid this message and have it automatically continue without have to input at the console? Thanks.

Are you by chance trying to restore to two hdisks? Instead of installing to one then mirroring the rootvg.

 

[kramJ]

Yes, the system I'm restoring to has rootvg mirrored and the source system did as well.

What's the problem with inputting at the console? Could you use something like:

mksysb -whatever <<EOF
1
EOF

Probably not if the OS isn't available I guess. It's Friday!!
