Ignite-UX Reference (March 2010, B3921-90005)
instl_adm(4) instl_adm(4)
4096, and 8192; the default is 1024.
fragsize = number
Sets the file system fragment size to number.
ncpg = number
Sets the number of cylinders per group to number.
nbpi = number
Sets the number of bytes per inode (inode density) to number.
rotational_delay = number
Sets the rotational delay factor for the file system to number. (See tunefs(1M).)
largefiles = boolean
Specifies that largefiles are to be enabled or disabled for this volume. This is supported for both
HFS and VxFS file systems.
version = number
For HP-UX B.11.23 and later clients, this keyword specifies the disk layout version number of the
VxFS file system to create for a mount point. If this keyword is not specified for a VxFS mount
point, then the default value for the release is used. For B.11.23, this value is 5; for B.11.31 this
value is 6. This is only supported for VxFS file systems.
The following attributes are recognized when the volume is an LVM volume (see lvcreate(1M)). Those
that apply to VxVM volumes are noted as such, otherwise they are ignored if the disk group is VxVM.
bad_block_relocate = boolean | none
Sets the bad block relocation policy to ’y’ if boolean is true or ’n’ if boolean is false.If
none is given, the bad block relocation policy is set to ’N’.
contiguous_allocation = boolean
Sets the contiguous allocation policy to ’y’ if boolean is true or ’n’ if boolean is false. Also
applies to VxVM volumes.
stripes = number
stripes = *
Specifies the data for this logical volume should be striped across multiple physical disks in the
volume group. The number of disks used to stripe the data may be provided by number,orifthe
data should be striped across all the disks in the group, * may be specified. Volumes that must be
contiguous (/, /stand, and primary swap/dump) cannot be striped. There must be two or
more disks configured in the volume group in order to specify a striped volume in that group.
Also applies to VxVM volumes.
stripe_size = number
Specifies the data size of each stripe. This is only used when the logical volume is specified to be
striped via the stripes keyword. The default stripe_size is equal to the file system block
size (which is 8KB by default). The allowed values for number depend on the usage. If the
usage is LVM then the allowed values for number must be a power of 2 and be in the range of
4KB to 32MB. If the usage is VxVM the allowed values can be any size.
disk[hw_path|dev_spec]
Specifies one or more references to a disk that may be listed inside a logical volume definition.
Doing so will force that volume to have data allocated only from the disk or disks listed. The
disks are listed inside the logical volume must have been listed as physical_volumes in the
same volume group in which the logical volume exists. Unless the desired disks are listed within
the logical volume definition, the logical volume could have data allocated from any of the disks in
the volume group. The vgdisk[index] keyword may be used for this purpose as well. Also
applies to VxVM volumes.
