COMMAND
createvv
DESCRIPTION
The createvv command creates volumes that are provisioned from one or more Common
Provisioning Groups (CPGs). Volumes can be fully provisioned from a CPG or can be thinly
provisioned. You can optionally specify a CPG for snapshot space for fully provisioned volumes.
SYNTAX
createvv [options] <usr_CPG> <VV_name> [.<index>] <size>[g|G|t|T]
AUTHORITY
Super, Edit
OPTIONS
-templ <template_name>
Use the options defined in template <tname>. The template is created using the
createtemplate command. Options specified in the template are read-only or
read/write. The read/write options may be overridden with new options at creation time
but read-only options may not be overridden their default values, and all of these options
are either read-only or read/write (using the
-nro or -nrw options of the
createtemplate command). If not included, the -size and -usr_cpg options are
automatically treated as read-write even if the other unincluded properties are marked
read-only.
-i <ID>
Specifies the ID of the volume. The default is the next available ID.
–cnt <count>
Specifies the number of identical VVs to create. This must be an integer from 1 through
999. If
<id> is specified with -i option, it is used as the ID of the first VV and incremented
by 1 for each subsequent volume.
NOTE: You need access to all domains in order to run this command with logical
disks specified.
