How to check free space for a metadevice in a diskset
Anyone know then command to check the unallocated disk space for a metadevice in a disk set? like:
/dev/md/data/dsk/d830
Something similar to veritas command below is what I'm looking for:
vxassist maxgrow <volume>
---------- Post updated at 12:34 PM ---------- Previous update was at 12:17 PM ----------
metarecover -v -n -s data d801 -p
that did the trick.
---------- Post updated at 01:08 PM ---------- Previous update was at 12:34 PM ----------
This produced output like this:
The following extent headers were found on data/d801.
Name Seq# Type Offset Length
data/d950 0 ALLOC 3179283327 10485761
data/d955 0 ALLOC 3168797535 10485761
NONE 0 END 3302785023 1
NONE 0 FREE 3189769088 113015935
NONE 0 FREE 3179283296 31
NONE 0 FREE 3168797504 31
Anyone know an easy to convert this readouts to GB ?
I did this but it seems a little off:
bash-3.00# echo "(113015935*512)/1073741824" | bc
53
53Gb available?

Hi,
I need about 500G space in one corporate solaris server.
However, I am not sure which command to use to check this.
There are few volume groups in the server, and I deleted unused, old volume groups to clear some space.
However, now I am not sure how to check the free space itself.

metaclear
metaclear(1M) System Administration Commands metaclear(1M)
NAME
metaclear - delete active metadevices and hot spare pools
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/metaclear -h
/usr/sbin/metaclear [-s setname] -a [-f]
/usr/sbin/metaclear component
/usr/sbin/metaclear [-s setname] [-f] metadevice... hot_spare_pool...
/usr/sbin/metaclear [-s setname] -r [-f] metadevice... hot_spare_pool...
/usr/sbin/metaclear [-s setname] -p component
/usr/sbin/metaclear [-s setname] -p metadevice
DESCRIPTION
The metaclear command deletes the specified metadevice or hot_spare_pool., or purges all soft partitions from the designated component.
Once a metadevice or hot spare pool is deleted, it must be re-created using metainit before it can be used again.
Any metadevice currently in use (open) cannot be deleted.
OPTIONS
Root privileges are required for all of the following options except -h.
-a Deletes all metadevices and configured hot spare pools in the set named by -s, or the local set by default.
-f Deletes (forcibly) a metadevice that contains a subcomponent in an error state.
-h Displays usage message.
-p Deletes (purges) all soft partitions from the specified metadevice or component.
-r Recursively deletes specified metadevices and hot spare pools, but does not delete metadevices on which others
depend.
-s setname Specifies the name of the diskset on which metaclear will work. Using the -s option causes the command to perform
its administrative function within the specified diskset. Without this option, the command performs its function on
local metadevices and/or hot spare pools.
OPERANDS
metadevice ... Specifies the name(s) of the metadevice(s) to be deleted.
component Specifies the c*d*t*s* name(s) of the components containing soft partitions to be deleted.
hot_spare_pool ... Specifies the name(s) of the hot spare pools to be deleted in the form hspnnn, where nnn is a number in the range
000-999.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Deleting Various Devices
The following example deletes a metadevice named d10.
# metaclear /dev/md/dsk/d10
The following example deletes all local metadevices and hot spare pools on the system.
# metaclear -a
The following example deletes a mirror, d20, with an submirror in an error state.
# metaclear -f d20
The following example deletes a hot spare pool, hsp001.
# metaclear hsp001
The following example deletes a soft partition, d23.

The following example purges all soft partitions on the slice c2t3d5s2 if those partitions are not being used by other metadevices or are
not open.
# metaclear -p c2t3d5s2
