About the syntax of volume group definition
This syntax of a volumegroup definition may be used as input to the vxassist
and vxvoladm commands. Volume groups are generally used to create several
volumes at the same time within a storage pool and are given equal weighting by
Veritas Intelligent Storage Provisioning (ISP) when allocating storage resources.
The following definition illustrates the syntax of a volumegroup:
volumegroup {
[diskgroup "dgname"]
[rules { volume-group-rules } ]
volume "name" length {
[cachevolume "cachevol"]
[capability \
’capability[(name=value,...)][,capability...]’]
[comment "comment"]
[dcologlen length]
[dm dm1,[dm2,...]]
[drl on|true|yes|sequential|off|false|no]
[excl on|off|true|false|yes|no]
[fmr on|off|true|false|yes|no]
[fstype type]
[group "group"]
[init active|none|zero]
