Hi
Our vxvm 3.5 server got crashed and now when I am creating dg's from scrach I can see old dgs as deported and that's why I am not able to create dg's
My question is how to remove Diskgroup from the configuration and create a new newdg with same name and restore the configuration
like
vxmake -g fsdg03 -d vxprint-rmv_4vxmk=fsdg03.out
Awaiting for reply...

Any reason why you don't want
Any reason why you don't want to simply import the old dgs?
If you re-initialize the disks and then recreate the dg you should be able to recreate the volumes with vxmake.

Agree with Marianne, what is
Agree with Marianne, what is the error when you try to normally import the diskgroup ?
Also if you want to re-make entire diskgroup, here would be the steps in short
-- you should have a vxprint -mvphsr output saved (before crash) or you should have a cfgrec file from CBR backup
-- You need to reinitialize all the disks WITH SAME OFFSETS, SAME PUBLIC & PRIVATE LENGTH (this step is very important)
-- You need to initialize the blank DG shell
-- Use the vxmake command with -d option & filename would be the file from first step I mentioned
