The above output indicates that the thin LUN corresponds to plex

datavol-02.

■ Direct all reads to come from those LUNs:

# vxvol -g datadg rdpol prefer datavol datavol-02

Remove the original non-thin LUNs.

Note: The ! character is a special character in some shells. This example shows

how to escape it in a bash shell.

# vxassist -g datadg remove mirror datavol \!STDARRAY1_01

# vxdg -g datadg rmdisk STDARRAY1_01

# vxdisk rm STDARRAY1_01

Grow the file system and volume to use all of the larger thin LUN:

# vxresize -g datadg -x datavol 40g da_name
