NOTE:
If you selected a subdevice that is associated with an unimported volume, you will
see a message reporting that the subdevice contains a volume signature. The message
asks whether you want to destroy the affected unimported dynamic volume and reuse
this subdevice for the volume you are extending.
Be sure that you do not need the unimported dynamic volume before doing this.
If the unimported volume associated with the subdevice is in a “duplicate” state, the
attempt to destroy the volume will fail. See Unimportable volumes, page 118 for more
information.
To extend a dynamic volume from the command line, use this command:
mx dynvolume extend <volumeName> <subDeviceName ...>
You can use either spaces or commas to separate the subdevice names.
Delete a dynamic volume
When a dynamic volume is deleted, the filesystem on that volume is also deleted.
Before deleting a dynamic volume, be sure that the filesystem is no longer needed
or has been copied or backed up to another location. The filesystem must be
unmounted when you perform this operation.
If the filesystem has persistent mounts, the mounts should also be deleted. Select the
filesystem on the Filesystems tab of the Management Console, right-click, and select
Edit Persistent Mounts. On the Edit Persistent Mounts window, elect the servers where
the filesystem is mounted and then click Delete to remove the persistent mounts.
To delete a dynamic volume from the Management Console, select Storage > Dynamic
Volume > Delete Volume. On the Delete Dynamic Volume window, select the volume
that you want to delete and click either OK or Apply.
