NAME

       mddb.cf - metadevice state database replica locations

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/lvm/mddb.cf

DESCRIPTION

       The /etc/lvm/mddb.cf file is created when the metadb(1M) command is invoked. You should never directly edit this file.

       The  file /etc/lvm/mddb.cf is used by the metainit(1M) command to find the locations of the metadevice state databases replicas. The metadb
       command creates the file and updates it each time it is run. Similar information is entered in the /kernel/drv/md.conf file.

       Each metadevice state database replica has a unique entry in the /etc/lvm/mddb.cf file. Each entry contains the driver and minor unit  num-
       bers  associated  with  the block physical device where a replica is stored. Each entry also contains the block number of the master block,
       which contains a list of all other blocks in the replica.

       Entries in the /etc/lvm/mddb.cf file are of the form: driver_name minor_t daddr_t  checksum where driver_name  and  minor_t  represent  the
       device  number  of  the physical device storing this replica. daddr_t is the disk block address. checksum is used to make certain the entry
       has not been corrupted. A pound sign (#) introduces a comment.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Sample File

       The following example shows a mddb.cf file.

	 #metadevice database location file do not hand edit
	 #driver minor_t daddr_t device id	 checksum
	 sd	 152	 16	 id1,sd@SSEAGATE_JDD288110MC9LH/a	 -2613

       In the example above, the value for daddr_t indicates that the offset from the start of a given partition is 16 disk blocks from the  start
       of that partition.
