vxdg Utility
The vxdg utility manages Volume Manager disk groups. The vxdg utility
can be used to specify that a disk group is cluster-shareable. The -s
option to the vxdg utility is provided to initialize or import a disk group

If the cluster software has been run to set up the cluster, a shared disk

# vxdg -s init diskgroup [ medianame =] accessname
where:

• medianame is the administrative name chosen for the disk
