Ex: Three different disks.
c0t0d0 -- 10Gb
c0t1d0 -- 5Gb
c0t2d0 -- 15Gb
#vxdctl enable
#vxdisksetup -i c0t0d0
#vxdisksetup -i c0t1d0
#vxdisksetup -i c0t2d0
Create a disk group.
#vxdg init -g <dgname> vxdiskname=c0t0d0
#vxdisk -g <dgname> adddisks vxdiskname=c0t1d0
vxdiskname=c0t2d0
#vxdg list -- Now we can see the newely created dg is
created to 30Gb
To see the maximum size of the volume;
#vxassist -g <dgname> maxsize
#vxassist -g <dgname> make <volume-name> <size-30G>
if it is ufs,
#newfs /dev/vx/rdsk/dgname/volume-name
#mount /dev/vx/dsk/dgname/volume-name /mount-point

Ans: Ex: Three different disks.
c0t0d0 -- 10 GB
c0t1d0 -- 5 GB
c0t2d0 -- 15 GB
#vxdctl enable
#/etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i c0t0d0
#/etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i c0t1d0
#/etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i c0t2d0
Create a disk group.
#vxdg init <dgname> disk01=c0t0d0
#vxdg -g <dgname> adddisk disk02=c0t1d0
#vxdg –g <dgname> adddisk disk03=c0t2d0
#vxdg list -- Now we can see the newly created dg that is
30 GB
To see the maximum size of the volume;
#vxassist -g <dgname> maxsize layout=layouttype
#vxassist -g <dgname> make <volume-name> <size-30G>
If it is vxfs,
#mkfs –F vxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/dgname/volume-name
#mount –F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/dgname/volume-name /mount-point

Answer / pavan
in creation of disks you don't have to specify -g with vxdg init

Hello Everyone, One of our servers is showing a strange issue, let me paste the output Code: root # uptime 4:37pm 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.04 Its been running since months but you can see after time there isn't any output like up 191 days(s). Even the who command with b and r option isn't giving any output. Code: root # who -b root # root # who -r root # the date command displays correct output. I am not sure but is it because someone has played with utmpx and wtmpx files, is reboot the only solution we have. Can anyone help us since we don't intend to reboot the server for such a reason and also no one has complained till yet.
