pvdisplay

Hi Admins,

i heard that pvdisplay -l is used to check the specific disk is under control of LVM.

pvdisplay -l /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0:LVM_DISK=yes

But in my B.11.23 server shows value as NO.The same disk lists under /etc/lvmtab which is my root disk.

Please suggets on this

Are you saying that this is your root disk? The pvdisplay output, according to the man page, indicates that this "physical volume is not under LVM control".

hi,

can you post the output in your 11.23 server.

# pvdisplay -l /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
# vgdisplay -v vg00
# strings /etc/lvmtab

Integrity server???

This is normal.

Try

pvdisplay -l /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2


because "s2" is part of LVM only!

Exactly:

PV Name /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2


Only partition 2 of this disk is under LVM control, not the whole disk.

This is normal, no need to worry.

Hi

If i include s2 with device path value shows as YES.
