14.Unrelocate subdisks back to a disk.
VxVM hot-relocation allows the system to automatically react to IO
failures on a redundant VxVM object at the subdisk level and take
necessary action to make the object available again. This mechanism
detects I/O failures in a subdisk, relocates the subdisk, and recovers
the plex associated with the subdisk. After the disk has been
replaced, Volume Manager provides the vxunreloc utility, which can
be used to restore the system to the same configuration that existed
before the disk failure. vxunreloc allowsyou tomove thehot-relocated
subdisks back onto a disk that was replaced due to a disk failure.
15.Exclude a disk from hot-relocation use.
Excludes disks in the free pool (non-spares) to be used by
hot-relocation.
16.Make a disk available for hot-relocation use.
