Associating templates with a storage pool
To associate one or more volume templates with a storage pool, use the vxpool
assoctemplate command as shown in the following command definition:
# vxpool [-g diskgroup] assoctemplate storage_pool \
template=t1[,t2,...]
For example, the following command associates the templates Mirroring and
Striping with the storage pool, ReliablePool:
# vxpool -g mydg assoctemplate ReliablePool \
template=Mirroring,Striping
If the value of the selfsufficient policy is diskgroup or host, ISP first looks for
storage that complies with the templates that are associated with the storage
pool, and if no suitable templates are found, it then examines templates outside
the pool.
See “Volume template” on page 191.
Associating template sets with a storage pool
To associate one or more template sets, including all the templates that they
contain, with a storage pool, use the vxpool assoctemplateset command as
shown in the following command definition:
# vxpool [-g diskgroup] assoctemplateset storage_pool \
template_set=ts1[,ts2,...]
For example, the following command associates the template set, DataMirroring,
with the storage pool, ReliablePool:
# vxpool -g mydg assoctemplateset ReliablePool \
template_set=DataMirroring
If the value of the selfsufficient policy is diskgroup or host, ISP first looks for
storage that complies with the templates that are associated with the storage
pool, and if no suitable templates are found, it then examines templates outside
the pool.
See “Template set” on page 188.
