Full Discussion: Problem mapping LUN disk from VIOS to the LPAR

Find new hdisk for VIOS
Here's what I do to find any hdisks that have been added to a VIOS or aren't assigned to a vhost. It's not pretty but it does the job.

Put the following into a script ( I called mine unused.sh ) and then chmod it. You have to create/run it as root because padmin isn't allowed to create files in it's restricted shell.

PATH=$PATH:/usr/ios/cli
echo "Creating list of drives not assigned to vhosts ..."
ioscli lsmap -all | grep ^Backing > lsmap.txt
for x in `lspv | awk '{print $1}' | grep -v hdisk0 | grep -vw hdisk1`
do
grep -q $x lsmap.txt
if [ $? -eq 1 ]
then
echo "$x"
ioscli lsdev -dev $x -attr | grep ^size | awk '{print $1" "$2"Mb"}'
fi
done




HTH!

zgrep

ZGREP(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  ZGREP(1)

NAME

     zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep -- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files

SYNOPSIS

     zgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [files ...]

     zegrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]

     zfgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

     zgrep runs grep(1) on files or stdin, if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with zcat(1).

     The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1).  If an -e flag is found in the grep-flags, zgrep will not look for a pattern
     argument.

     zegrep calls egrep(1), while zfgrep calls fgrep(1).

EXIT STATUS

     In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0.

SEE ALSO

     egrep(1), fgrep(1), grep(1), gzip(1), zcat(1)
