Disks compatibility
Hi all,
I am trying to isntall veritas replicator on 2 DA 3000 storage , But with little luck . I am running a solaris 10 and vsf 4.1, Veritas Volume Replicator Option 4.1
My question is that :
when i got the array i had 2 disks missing , So we had to replace them , but I found out that the disk brands are not matching :
server 1:
4. c2t5d0 <SEAGATE-ST314670LSUN146G-045A cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 848>
5. c2t8d0 <HITACHI-HUS10143ASUN146G-PA05 cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 848> ................
........
server 2:
9. c2t12d0 <HITACHI-HUS10143ASUN146G-PA05 cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 848>
10. c2t13d0 <FUJITSU-MAW3147NCSUN146G-1703 cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 848>
As u can see above that i have disks of different brands .
After i finished the installation i found that the dgs are not shared althought they were created as shared .
Could mixing brands of disks under volume replicator causes a pb ???
Thanks a lot
Cheers

vgreduce
VGREDUCE(8) System Manager's Manual VGREDUCE(8)
NAME
vgreduce - reduce a volume group
SYNOPSIS
vgreduce [-a|--all] [-A|--autobackup y|n] [-d|--debug] [-h|-?|--help] [--removemissing] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName [Physi-
calVolumePath...]
DESCRIPTION
vgreduce allows you to remove one or more unused physical volumes from a volume group.
OPTIONS
See lvm for common options.
-a, --all
Removes all empty physical volumes if none are given on command line.
--removemissing
Removes all missing physical volumes from the volume group, if there are no logical volumes allocated on those. This resumes normal
operation of the volume group (new logical volumes may again be created, changed and so on).
If this is not possible (there are logical volumes referencing the missing physical volumes) and you cannot or do not want to remove
them manually, you can run this option with --force to have vgreduce remove any partial LVs.
Any logical volumes and dependent snapshots that were partly on the missing disks get removed completely. This includes those parts
that lie on disks that are still present.
If your logical volumes spanned several disks including the ones that are lost, you might want to try to salvage data first by acti-
vating your logical volumes with --partial as described in lvm (8).
