Example importing non-root volume group
After a new and complete overwrite or a mksysb restore, it might be necessary to re-import the
data volume groups. If the data resided on the root volume group, it might be lost. If the data
and applications resided on a disk other than the rootvg disk, they can be recovered by
importing the volume groups.
Example A-2 shows how to confirm the content of a disk after recovering the volume group.
