Second, please do not use others threads to post your problems. As it is, our founder Neo has foregone no expense to provide an almost unlimited amount of new threads and you are welcome to use one of these.
In which way it "doesn't work"? Could you be bit more specific, please? Are there error codes, error messages, wrong results (if yes, which ones?), etc.?
Two errors i can tell you from a glance:
This can't work. You need a subshell for this.
And this is not wrong, but problematic:
It is possible to mirror LVs not only once (two copies) but also twice (three copies). Further, you do not want to use double quotes when you do integer comparisons. You might want to change this line to
./disk.sh[25]: 0403-057 Syntax error at line 33 : `|' is not expected.
Here is line 33:
Yes, this won't work and for the same reason the other two lines won't work: you need a subshell for this:
But even if you'd write it syntactically correct you should not do it this way anyways and there are a lot of obvious misconceptions about the workings of LVM in the script. I don't have the time right now to expand on this, but will do so once i get back in a few hours, so stay tuned.

I will provide the "start command", someone else can provide the parsing bit.
Note: I am not mirrored.
What to look for!
There are two columns labeled LP and PP. Here is can determine how many copies there are. If PP == LP, one copy; if PP is double LP - 2 copies, if PP is three times LP - then three copies of the data (not copies of the first copy, copies is the number of copies of data - 1, 2 or 3).
The magic command to start this is:

Sorry, it took me a while longer than i thought to come back to here:
you look for an existing device file as a test if the VG is online. You should use the AIX methods instead, because they always work, while this may or may not work. Use
to get a list of online VGs. Change your test accordingly. Then
Even if this would be syntactically correct (which it isn't, see posts above) it would be better to use normal AIX methods to get a list of LVs in a VG. Use

I've looked a little but haven't found a solid answer, assuming there is one.
What's better, hardware mirroring or ZFS mirroring? Common practice for us was to use the raid controllers on the Sun x86 servers. Now we've been using ZFS mirroring since U6. Any performance difference? Any other... (3 Replies)
