I am trying to write a kornshell script that will automatically create veritas disk groups. However, the only utility that I can find that will create the diskgroup is vxdiskadd, which prompts with interactive questions. I've tried to pass the answers through to vxdiskadd, but I receive the following errors. Does any know of a different way to create the diskgroups? Another Veritas program that would allow command line parameters? Another way to pass the answers to vxdiskadd?

I've had a VXFS filesystem get corrupted and now it won't mount.
Can I run a fsck -y on the raw disk device or should something be
done within veritas? Veritas does not see the disk at the moment. (2 Replies)
Hi there,
My task is to replace the two 73 G disks with two 143 G disks , which has vxvm 4.1 running on it. I would like to know whether the steps iam following are correct.

2. Remove the sub-disks,plexes of the root mirror.

Hi,
I`m on SunFire480R with Solaris 10. Disk in rootdg group failed, so it was replaced. However, I cannot make Veritas initalise the replaced disk:

Need help getting all disk devices back on node 2 the same as node 1.
Recently Veritas and/or Sun cluster got wrecked on my 2 node Sun cluster after installing the latest patch cluster. I backed out the patches and then node 2 could see only half of the devices and Veritas drives (though format... (0 Replies)
Hi Experts
I need an script to add an disk in to the veritas volume manager disk group.
For example:
# cd /tmp
# view disk
c6t5d2
c6t2d1
c6t3d7
c6t11d2
c7t11d2
c6t11d6
Normally we add the disk like this:
# vxdg -g freedg freedisk01=c6t5d2
# vxdg -g freedg freedisk02=c6t2d1

Hello all,
So I made a rookie mistake today. I forgot to remove my disk from my disk group, before running the following command:for i in `ioscan -fnN | awk /NO/'{print $3}'`
do
rmsf -H $i
done
I am trying to run the following command, but not having any luck obviously:vxdg -g dgvol1 rmdisk... (0 Replies)

vxevac
vxevac(1M)vxevac(1M)NAME
vxevac - evacuate all volumes from a disk
SYNOPSIS
/etc/vx/bin/vxevac [-g diskgroup] [-k [-O operation-tag]] [-t tasktag]
medianame [new_medianame...]
/etc/vx/bin/vxevac [-g diskgroup] [-O operation-tag] [-t tasktag]
commit medianame
/etc/vx/bin/vxevac [-g diskgroup] [-O operation-tag] [-t tasktag]
rollback medianame
DESCRIPTION
The vxevac utility moves subdisks off the specified Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) disk (medianame) to the specified destination disks
(new_medianame...). If no new_medianame arguments are specified, any non-volatile, non-reserved disks can be used as destination disks.
Subdisks that are part of unmirrored striped plexes are moved by moving the entire plex to a new location.
Note: This operation assumes that there is sufficient space in the disk group for the operation to complete. If the process runs out of
space, some of the volumes on the disk may not be evacuated.
vxevac is usually called from the vxdiskadm menus.
A medianame argument is an administrative name used to define a disk within a disk group.
The evacuation of a volume can be committed or rolled back if the -k option is specified. Such an operation is referred to as a "tentaive
move." In addition, the -O option may be used to define a tag for a given tentative move operation.
KEYWORDS
commit Completes tentative subdisk move operations by removing the source subdisks, and replacing them with the target subdisks. The -O
option can be used to specify an operation tag for the subdisks whose tentative move is to be committed. If no operation tag is
specified, the commit operation is applied to all completed tentative subdisk moves for the specified media. The commit opera-
tion fails if a tentative move or a recovery resynchronization is in progress.
rollback Reverses tentative subdisk move operations by removing the target subdisks, and leaving the source subdisks intact. The -O
option can be used to specify an operation tag for the subdisks whose tentative move is to be rolled back. If no operation tag
is specified, the rollback operation is applied to all completed tentative subdisk moves for the specified media. The rollback
operation fails if a tentative move or a recovery resynchronization is in progress.
OPTIONS -g diskgroup
Specifies the disk group for the operation, either by disk group ID or by disk group name.
-k Initiates a subdisk move while preserving the source subdisks on the original plexes. The source and target subdisks are marked.
The tentative move operation can be committed or rolled back at a later time. If the -O option is used to specify a tag, this
tag can be used with the vxtask command to monitor, pause or abort such operations.
-O operation-tag
Specifies an operation tag that can be used to commit or roll back a completed tentative move operation. If an operation tag is
specified, a task tag is automatically set to the same value. However, setting a task tag does not imply the setting of an opera-
tion tag.
-t tasktag
Specifies an administrative operation to perform by the numeric identifier tasktag. See the vxtask(1M) manual page for informa-
tion on Veritas Volume Manager tasks.
