    Hi,
    I have problem i try restore vg on AIX but i still have message:
    warning: 0042-001 m_restvg: processing error encountered on "master":
    0042-175 c_ch_nfsexp: An unexpected result was returned by the
    "/usr/sbin/exportfs" command:
    exportfs: 1831-186 /export/nim/savevg/paurumbatch_svg_danevg not found in /etc/exports
    0042-001 nimclient: processing error encountered on "t2aix61":
    0042-175 c_restvg: An unexpected result was returned by the "/usr/sbin/nimclient" command:
    0042-001 nimclient: processing error encountered on "master":
    0042-001 nim: processing error encountered on "master":
    0042-001 m_allocate: processing error encountered on "master":
    0042-175 c_ch_nfsexp: An unexpected result was returned by the
    "/usr/sbin/exportfs" command:
    exportfs: 1831-186 /export/nim/savevg/paurumbatch_svg_danevg not found in /etc/exports

    My situation:

    NIM 6.1 TL3SP1
    AIX 6.1 TL3SP1

    From client AIX i can connect to NIM and chose a resource "paurumbatch_svg_danevg".

    Type or select values in entry fields.
    Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes.

    My windows of console looks like below :

    TOP Entry Fields
    • SAVEVG [paurumbatch_svg_danev> +/
    Network Install Operation to Perform restvg
    SHRINK the filesystems? no +
    PHYSICAL VOLUME names hdisk1 +
    (Leave blank to use the PHYSICAL VOLUMES listed
    in the vgname.data file in the backup image)
    Use existing MAP files? yes +
    Physical partition SIZE in megabytes [] +#
    (Leave blank to have the SIZE determined
    based on disk size)
    Number of BLOCKS to read in a single input [] #
    (Leave blank to use system default)
    Alternate vg.data resource [] /

    Have you any idea what going on ?
