Finding volumes that use specified capabilities or

templates

To list the volumes that were created using certain capabilities or templates, use

the following command:

# vxassist [-g diskgroup] [-P storage_pool] list \

[capability=c1[,c2...]] [template=t1[,t2...]]

For example, to list all the volumes in the disk group mydg that implement the

DataMirroring capability, use the following command:

# vxassist -g mydg list capability=DataMirroring

TY NAME DG POOL LENGTH LAYOUT NMIR NCOL

v vol1 mydg data 10g stripe-mirror 2 10

v vol2 mydg data 500m mirror 2 -

The length of the volume is rounded down to the nearest whole number of standard

units (k for kilobytes, m for megabytes, g for gigabytes, and so on).

Verifying the intent of a volume

To verify whether the application volumes in a disk group conform to the template

rules, user-defined rules, volume group rules and storage pool rules that were

used to create them, use the following command:

# vxassist -g diskgroup verify

To verify the intent of all application volumes in all disk groups, use the following

form of the command:

# vxassist -a verify

Displaying the rules associated with volumes

You can use the following command to display the capabilities, volume templates

and rules that were specified when a volume was created:

# vxassist [-g diskgroup] printintent volume ...

To display the complete set of rules that were used to create a volume, use the

following command:

# vxassist [-g diskgroup] printrules volume ...
