Veritas File System 5.1 SP1 Administrator"s Guide (5900-1499, April 2011)

If the disk layout version is less than 6, upgrade to Version 7. For example,

if the disk layout version is 5, upgrade to Version 7 as follows:

# vxupgrade -n 6 /mnt1

# vxupgrade -n 7 /mnt1

Unmount the file system:

# umount /mnt1

Convert the volume into a volume set:

# vxvset -g dg1 make vset1 vol1

Edit the /etc/fstab file to replace the volume device name, vol1, with the

volume set name, vset1.

Mount the file system:

# mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/dg1/vset1 /mnt1

As necessary, create and add volumes to the volume set:

# vxassist -g dg1 make vol2 256M

# vxvset -g dg1 addvol vset1 vol2

Set the placement class tags on all volumes that do not have a tag:

# vxvoladm -g dg1 settag vol1 vxfs.placement_class.tier1

# vxvoladm -g dg1 settag vol2 vxfs.placement_class.tier2
