Re: what is the Maximum Disk Size I can create using lvcreate ?

Hi

This what i done to create 1.5 TB of mount point .IT can be done only thru commands , Some how it was not allowing me to do this thru SAM.I have Online JFS installed.

Creating Disk with more than 1TB

#vgcreate ├в e 65535 ├в s 32 /dev/dsk/vg02
#lvcreate ├в L 1535744 vg02

Note:1535744 is 1.5 TB of disk size arrived from calculating PE Size X Total PE

#newfs -F vxfs /dev/vg02/rlvol1
version 4 layout
1572601856 sectors, 1572601856 blocks of size 1024, log size 16384 blocks
unlimited inodes, largefiles not supported
1572601856 data blocks, 1572189480 free data blocks
47992 allocation units of 32768 blocks, 32768 data blocks
#mkdir /disk1
#mount /dev/vg02/lvol1 /disk1

Note : this has to be carried out Command only NOT THRU SAM.

That does not surprise me. I do all VG/LV work through command line. There are, or at least used to be, other options that were not available through SAM.
