NEWMIRRVOL
The NEWMIRRVOL command adds a new member volume to an existing mirrored
volume set.
The volume that will be initialized as the new volume member must be
mounted in the SCRATCH or UNKNOWN state.
Task
Adds volumes to a mirrored volume set.
Syntax
NEWMIRRVOL [VNAME=]sname:vname
[LDEVS=](ldev,ldev)
[ [PERM=]percent_perm ][ [TRANS=]percent_trans]
[ [CLASSES=](cname[ [,cname]...])]
Parameters
sname The name assigned to the mirrored volume set.
Required.
vname The name that you assign to the new volume. It is
used to reference and identify the volume. It must
be a unique name at the time of initialization. No
other volume with the same name can be mounted on
the system. Required.
ldev,ldev Two numbers from 1 to 999 that specify the logical
devices that are to become the mirrored master
volumes of the volume set. They must identify two
different devices configured into the device class
DISC. The volumes must be mounted in the SCRATCH or
UNKNOWN state. Required.
percent_perm A number between 0 and 100 that specifies the
maximum percentage of disk space that can be
allocated to permanent data (files, databases).
Default is 100. Optional.
percent_trans A number between 0 and 100 that specifies the
maximum percentage of disk space that can be
allocated to transient data (process stacks,
virtual objects). Default is 100. Optional.
cname The names of volume classes to be initially created
in the volume set. The MASTER volume (volume being
initialized) will be assigned to these classes. If
this parameter is omitted the volume class DISC is
created, and the MASTER volume is assigned.
Optional.
Example
This example shows how to use the VOLUTIL NEWMIRRVOL command. If you do
not specify a volume class, the default volume class DISC is added to the
volume.
NOTE The ":" needs to be specified in this command.
