    Hi
    Have you restored the same savevg backup successfully to another AIX 5.2 machine? Were the file systems mounted during the savevg command ran? Was the filessystem busy or idle during backup.
    What are the console messages when you restore the vg? With which savevg command did you save the vg? Usually I use /usr/bin/savevg -f </mountpoint/filename> -i <vg-to-backup>.
    Please tell us more details...
