We have a 2 node cluster and need to extend a MCSG VG. VG is available on once of the production servers.
We have LUNs assigned from an XP1024 and we have created device files on the both the machines.
Am i correct in my procedure.
Node 1:
#pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c15t15d0
vgextend /dev/vg02 /dev/c15t15d0
lvextend -L 5000 /dev/vg02/lvol10
fsadm -F vxfs -b 5000m /Project1
vgexport -s -p -v -m /tmp/vg02.map vg02 > vg02.list
scp vg02.map node2:/tmp
Node 2:
vgexport vg02
mkdir /dev/vg02
mknod group c 64 0x030000
vgimport -p -s -m /tmp/vg02.map -v /dev/vg02
no errors
give
vgimport -s -m /tmp/vg02.map -v /dev/vg02
Do you guys see any problem in this procedure.
Thanks,
Nair

Re: Wants to increse the filesystem size on a Clustered VG.
Assuming that c15t15d0 disk is visible to both nodes's you should be okay.
On node 2 you are running mknod which I though t was only ncessary when creating a volume group from scratch.
I would think if node 2 has ever accessed this volum group this step would not be necessary.

Re: Wants to increse the filesystem size on a Clustered VG.
If i am not running the command vgexport vg02 and vgimport commands on the second node, the second node will not get the new LUNs in the lvmtab right ?
Tx,
NAir

Re: Wants to increse the filesystem size on a Clustered VG.
The steps looks perfect only thing like other mentioned here u need to make sure you can see the disk on the other server also.Also since the vg is existing(supposed to be existing) then dont need to do a mknod.

Re: Wants to increse the filesystem size on a Clustered VG.
After vgexport, you really need to mkdir and mknod to vrate the fgroup file.
On emore important thing to be on the safe side : After importing the new volume group, activate it in readonly mode (vgchange -a r), and then take a backup (vgcfgbackup) and inactivate the VG again. If you don't, you will be unable to restore the VG configuration from this node if there should be a failing disk (or LUN for that matter).

Re: Wants to increse the filesystem size on a Clustered VG.
So after importing the VG te extra command would be:
vgchange -a r
vgcfgbackup
vgchange -a n
