VERITAS Volume Manager 3.2 for HP-UX Release Notes
Initializing the VERITAS Volume Manager for HP-UX
Chapter 1 55
Quick Installation examines each disk attached to your system
and attempts to create volumes to cover all disk partitions
that might be used for file systems or for other similar
purposes.
If you want to exclude any devices from being seen by VxVM
or not be multipathed by vxdmp then use the Prevent
mutipathing/Suppress devices from VxVM’s view option,
before you choose Custom Installation or Quick Installation.
If you do not wish to use some disks with the Volume Manager,
or if you wish to reinitialize some disks, use the Custom
Installation option. Otherwise, we suggest that you use the
Quick Installation option.
