Identify the new luns attached to hypervisor (echo | format ).
Label the new luns and partition them per your choosing or requirements via format command.
First, you assign new luns to hypervisors virtual disk service (vds).
In your case that is primary-vds0
Check the current configuration of virtual machine :
Then, add the disk to virtual machine (ldom), where id is optional, it will choose next number available if not specified.
After that, login to that virtual machine via telnet from hypervisor or network, check dmesg for devices created at the time, and format output.
If you specified the ID of of new disk(s), those will be (probably) c1d<ID>s2 in the LDOM or the next available number.
Either c1, c2.. depending on the devices present during initial install.
Work is now being done inside the virtual machine, you must determine which volume manager is used (vx, zfs, ufs ?).
continue by documentation regarding that subject taking into consideration that this is a clustered environment.
Probably the disks will need to be added to other members of the cluster.
This is not a trivial task, so test it first in some test environment, if you are unsure of the outcome.

Hi,
I am very new to HP-UX, and we're going to be doing a SAN migration.
We're going to take down the machine, and zone it to the new SAN.
My question is, will the device names change and will that interfere with the LVM?
If the new disks come in with different device names, how would I... (3 Replies)

Hi, I'm going to be involved in a migration of SAN islands to one big SAN. I've not worked with SANs before and I'm not sure how to approach this. I suspect the disk devices on the HP servers are going to change, when the EVA's and servers are plugged into this new Cisco 9509 switch.
Any... (0 Replies)
