Mirror VG00

Juan Manuel López — Mon, 15 Apr 2002 09:52:08 GMT

Hi.
I know the procedure to create a mirror on vg00:
1 pvcreate -B /dev/rdsk/xyz
2 vgextend /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/xyz
3 mkboot /dev/rdsk/xyz
4 mkboot -a "hpux (;0) /stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/xyz
5 lvextend -m1 ( with every lv on the vg )
6 lvlnboot -R

So my question is:

How can I eliminate the quorum ?

Thanks.

Hi,
Creating AUTO string i LIF on the second disk (mirror) you can write just:

mkboot -a "hpux -lq" /dev/rdsk/xyz

Hi,

Change this line:

mkboot -a "hpux (;0) /stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/xyz

to:

mkboot -a "hpux -lq(;0) /stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/xyz

Hi,

Do not forget to do this on the original disl as well.
Because if the mirror fails it will not be able to boot from it's original disk.
