Ignite-UX Custom Configuration files
}
You can now start the definition of the volume group that has its name set by the variable
_my_volume_group; the volume group is explicitly defined to be the LVM:
volume_group _my_volume_name
{
#
# Only allow LVM
#
usage = LVM
You now define some volume group attributes, specifically the maximum number of physical extents
(Ignite-UX changes this to suit the disks as required). In addition, you set up the PE size here as
well. The default configuration file sets the variable up _hp_root_disk for you.
#
# Setup for defaults allowing of 36 and 72Gb disks as boot disk
#
max_physical_extents = 2500
(disk[_hp_root_disk].size < 40000MB) {
physical_extent_size=8
} else {
physical_extent_size=16
}
#
# The root disk was found by Ignite-UX for us
#
physical_volume disk[_hp_root_disk]
Now you define the root file system. In all of these file systems, you are not giving them explicit
names; this is left up to Ignite-UX. Here, you only set the minimum number of fields for the root
file system attributes:
#
# Define the root file system
#
logical_volume
{
mount_point = "/"
usage=VxFS
size=400Mb
contiguous_allocation = true
bad_block_relocate = false
}
Next is primary swap and dump. This configuration does not define a secondary swap. The size
is interesting; allocate at least _hp_min_swap as the size. The variable _hp_min_swap again is
set by the default configuration file. The maximum size is _hp_pri_swap; however, depending
on the available disk space, the actual amount of space allocated is somewhere between
_hp_min_swap and _hp_pri_swap.
#
# Define the swap/dump
#
logical_volume
