Cluster VG status

[Viswanath Buddi]

Hi,
If VG status bit is set to 'exclusive' it is cluster aware.

Does it apply same with shared. i.e. If the status is 'shared' can we consider it as cluster aware.

Thanks in advance.

Yes,

But some "Shared Volume" can also be exclusive group between to 2 server with out Cluster setup. It depends on Enviroment

Cluster "VG" configured by pkg and running in Cluster for particular node is called "Cluster VG"

cmviewcl --> command to check "pkg" running and nodes

man vgchange ->for more information about exclusive and Cluster aware vg

vgchange -a c y make "VG" to cluster aware

vgchange -a e y -> make "VG" to exclusive
