re : can someone help

Hi Guys,
Can someone help, I have a rx4640 running on hpux 11.23 and in it a smart array 6402 card is install link up with a MSA 30 with 14 x 300GB harddisk. I will configure a raid 5 with 12 harddisk and 2 spare. Can someone provide me with the command to create a vg of more than 1 TB and a logical voulume of also more than 1 TB. Also, at the moment the rx4640 is link up through fibre with a EMC storage, How can I transfer example /mech with cpio command to /mech_new. Please advice???

Regards
Vincent

mkdir /dev/vg65
mknod /dev/vg65/group c 64 0x410000

pvcreate your luns (/dev/rdsk/cXtXdX)

Create vg:

vgcreate /dev/vg65 /dev/dsk/cXtXdX /dev/dsk/dYcYtY etc...

lvcreate -L 1048576 -n lv1tb /dev/vg65

lvcreate -L 2097152 -n lv2tb /dev/vg65

newfs -o largefiles /dev/vg65/rlv1tb
newfs -o largefiles /dev/vg65/rlv2tb

To configure the array and the logical drive you need to use saconfig.

man saconfig
for more information

Hope this helps!
