adding disks in veritas (hp-ux)

[NDO]

Hi

I have a 2 node McServiceGuard cluster running hp-ux 11.31, in which one of the nodes id down. I need to create another file system into the system, and I am not familiar with veritas, but I did some research, and I found the following steps needed, please correct me if I am wrong:

1. vxdctl -f enable

2. vxdiskadm to add disk into current disk group

3. vxdg list

4. vxdisk list

5. vxassist -g dgrac make  data14 100g

6. ls /dev/vx/dsk/dgrac

7. mkdir data14

8. newfs -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vx/dsk/data14/rlvol

9 . mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/dgrac/data14 /data14

10. bdf

Do I need to bring down the database before these exercise?

Looking forward to hear from you.

Select Add or initialize one or more disks from the vxdiskadm main menu. At the following prompt, enter the disk device name of the disk to be added to VxVM control (or enter list for a list of disks): Select disk devices to add: [<pattern-list>,all,list,q,?]
