Can't import diskgroup after deport

OK, they are called ASL (Array Support Libraries). Download the one for
your Array. (see the support site and search for ASL and CX500)

NOw, next question is why not import the DG with the name ?

#vxdg import cmydg

if that fails

#vxdg -C import cmydg

if that fails

#vxdg -Cf import cmydg
