Volume groups do not varyon at reboot

Question:

Env:
  AIX 3.2.5.1  (Just upgraded)
  RISC 590

Desc:
  Customer just upgraded to 3.2.5.1 from 3.2.5.0, upon reboot 
  the customer's rootvg2 volume group did not varyon.  

Action:
  getlvodm -u rootvg2
     y was the output, which means it should auto varyon upon 
     reboot

  Look at the script
  /usr/sbin/cfgvg

Script Starts
------------------

vgvaryedon=`lsvg -o`
\# remove the vg's already varied on
vglist=`lsvg | grep -v "$vgvaryedon"`
for name in $vglist
do
    AUTO_ON=`getlvodm -u $name`
   if [ $? = 0 -a "$AUTO_ON" = y ]
    then
        varyonvg  $name
    fi
done

----------------------
Ends here

Anything with a substring of rootvg will be exclude because of 
the grep -v

This is a known bug at 3.2.5.1 which is fixed with PTF U439415

This is a known bug at 4.1, which is fixed with this APAR IX52472

WORKAROUND
  exportvg rootvg2
  importvg -y uservg hdisk4    
  (changed the name to keep this from occurring)

Next Action:
  Order fix for the customer
  Closing with customer approval
