VXVM and DMP

[Peter Marais]

What is the procedure to add another path to the vxvm database online? Situation is I have a system running with a spare fc controller which I want to add to the current disk database for redundancy. I want to do this without rebooting the system or stopping my database. Is this possible.

Hi Peter,

Yes this is very much possible online. You just have to do

#vxdctl enable

HTH,

Thanks, also I found that the device must be listed in the dll config file or else it won't work. I used vxdmpinq and then added the jbod with vxddladm addjbod.
