if you have time, can you check my work for me and make suggestions for
improvement, thanks a lot.
i have twelve 18g drives, here's the Setup Steps (LEN for an 18g may
not=34380800):
1. vxdisksetup I c2t2d0s2 c2t3d0s2 c2t4d0s2 c2t5d0s2 c2t8d0s2 c2t9d0s2
c3t2d0s2 c3t3d0s2 c3t4d0s2 c3t5d0s2 c3t8d0s2 c3t9d0s2
2. vxdg init LAWSON_DG disk25=c2t2d0s2
3. vxdg g LAWSON_DG free
4. vxdg g LAWSON_DG adddisk disk31=c3t2d0s2
5. #3 identifies the <size in sectors>, or the LEN value, of an 18g disk to
be used for each volume creation/config
6. vxdg g LAWSON_DG adddisk disk26=c2t3d0s2 disk27=c2t4d0s2
disk28=c2t5d0s2 disk29=c2t8d0s2 disk30=c2t9d0s2 disk32=c3t3d0s2
disk33=c3t4d0s2 disk34=c3t5d0s2 disk35=c3t8d0s2 disk36=c3t9d0s2
7. Vxmake g LAWSON_DG sd disk25-01 offset=0 len=34380800 disk=disk25
8. Vxmake g LAWSON_DG sd disk31-01 offset=0 len=34380800 disk=disk31
9. vxmake -g LAWSON_DG plex lawson2-01 sd=disk25-01
10. vxmake -g LAWSON_DG plex lawson2-02 sd=disk31-01
11. vxmake -g LAWSON_DG -U fsgen vol lawson2 plex=lawson2-01,lawson2-02
12. vxvol -g LAWSON_DG start lawson2
13. newfs /dev/vx/rdsk/LAWSON_DG/lawson2
14. mkdir /lawson2
15. mount /dev/vx/dsk/LAWSON_DG/lawson2 /lawson2
16. vi /etc/vfstab and place new mount entry here.
