The copy size in blocks can be obtained from the output of the command
vxdg list diskgroup as the value of the permlen parameter on the line
starting with the string “config:”. This value is the smallest of the len
values for all copies of the configuration database in the disk group. The
amount of remaining free space in the configuration database is shown
as the value of the free parameter. An example is shown in “Displaying
Disk Group Information” on page 154. One way to overcome the problem
of running out of free space is to split the affected disk group into two
separate disk groups. See “Reorganizing the Contents of Disk Groups” on
page 172 for details.
CAUTION Before making any changes to disk groups, use the commands vxprint
-hrm and vxdisk list to record the current configuration.
