Adding Volumes to a Class 

To add a volume to an existing class on a system or nonsystem volume set,
use the EXPANDCLASS command.  Refer to chapter 5 for more information on
this command.

Example:  Adding a Volume to a Class 

This example shows how to add two volumes to an existing class.

   1.  To add two member volumes to the existing volume class, ENGR, use
       the following command at the VOLUTIL prompt.

   2.  Verify that the volumes have been added to the class by using the
       SHOWCLASS command:

       This screen shows that the volumes have been added.

Once volume members have been added to a volume class, the system
recognizes them, and they are available for use.
