vgdisplay -v problem

[j773303]

I create a logical volume /dev/vg00/lvol9. While vgdisplv -v, lvol9 can shows. But when I use Oracle command to create a table space for lvol9. Then vgdisplay -v doesn't show the /dev/vg00/lvol9. Does anyone has the experience about this behavior? Is it no problem?

Hi there,
Not much familiar with Oracle Table Space but what i have heard about is you have to use raw space for the same. So rather than using /dev/vg00/lvol9 try using /dev/vg00/rlvol9 device file.

Hope that helps.

hi,

may i know the sql statement, i.e. "create tablespace ...." you use to create tablespace with on the logical volume, /dev/vg00/lvol9?

how about, "lvdisplay /dev/vg00/lvol9", did you see any output?

regards.

Hi

after doing the lvcreate did you do a newfs ?

Hi,

# lvcreate .....
# newfs -F vxfs /dev/vg00/rvol9
# mkdir /mountpoint
# mount /dev/vg00/lvol9 /mountpoint
# bdf
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol9
This should work.
