Data Replication manager with Compaq Tru64 UNIX Logical Storage Manager

DRM Configuration Variations
Application Notes – Data Replication Manager with HP Tru64 UNIX Logical Storage Manager 7
• Prepares the system to start LSM upon system reboot
• Starts the vold and voliod daemons
NOTE: You do not have to use the rootdg disk group for volume creation, but you must have a rootdg
disk group before you can create any other disk groups.
IMPORTANT: The disk used for the rootdg cannot be part of a remote copy set.
Follow these steps to initialize LSM and the rootdg disk group for each site (you must be superuser):
Using the volsetup Utility
If you are in single user mode, set up the host name with the hostname command, then execute the
volsetup script, as shown in the following example.
NOTE: Do not specify the boot disk as one of the disks you stipulate to be used to initialize the rootdg.
If you want, you can encapsulate the root and swap partitions and add them to the rootdg disk group
later.
Example: Using the volsetup Script for LSM Initialization
The following is an example of the screen display you can expect to see when using the volsetup script
for LSM initialization. Example user inputs are indented.
# /usr/sbin/volsetup
Approximate maximum number of physical disks that will be managed by LSM?
[10]
<Return>
Enter the disk(s) to add into the rootdg disk group.
NOTE: Enter a blank line to end the list of disks.
? dsk2b dsk3b dsk9b dsk10b
? <Return>
<Return>
Specified partition /dev/rdisk/dsk9b is marked in use.
Also partition(s) which overlap /dev/rdisk/dsk9b are marked in use.
If you continue with the operation you can possibly destroy existing data.
Would you like to continue using dsk9b?? [y,n,q,?] (default: n)
< y >
Initialize vold and the root disk group:
Add disk dsk2b to the root disk group as dsk2b:
Addition of disk dsk2b as dsk2b succeeded.
Add disk dsk3b to the root disk group as dsk3b:
Addition of disk dsk3b as dsk3b succeeded.
Add disk dsk9b to the root disk group as dsk9b:
Specified partition /dev/rdisk/dsk9b is marked in use.
Also partition(s) which overlap /dev/rdisk/dsk9b are marked in use.
If you continue with the operation you can possibly destroy existing data.
