Re: 450 disk problems
IF you useing HPUX LVM disks make use of the rlvol and NOT the dev/dsk/driver...ie link the chunk to the /dev/vg01/rlvol1 etc.. use pvdisplay, lvdisplay, vgdisplay to look at the drives, not a good idea to mix os data with INFX data on a rlvol...INFX does not need offsets in the rlvol (as long as one chunk per rlvol)...i posted some HP LVM reporting scripts on my server ...19thave.com, jbennett post here if you need more info....jb Maria Wilson wrote: > Hi all, > > > Anyone come across this problem.
