Veritas Storage Foundation Intelligent Storage Provisioning 5.0 AdministratorÆs Guide, HP-UX 11i v3, First Edition, May 2008

Chapter
4
Administering application
volumes
This chapter describes how to perform maintenance tasks on volumes that you
have created using Veritas Intelligent Storage Provisioning (ISP). This includes
resizing and changing the capabilities of volumes without taking them offline.
The operations in this chapter use the
vxassist and vxvoladm commands. For
full details, see the
vxassist(1M) and vxvoladm(1M) manual pages.
Note: All operations in this chapter that use the vxassist command have an
equivalent
vxvoladm command, which is obtained by substituting vxvoladm for
vxassist. Any other arguments to the command remain the same. The
vxassist command does not support the migrate, printintent, printrules,
reversemigrate and reversemigrateall operations of the vxvoladm command.
For details of how to display information about volumes, monitor and control
tasks, and how to use the vxresize command to resize a volume and an
underlying file system, see the “Administering Volumes” chapter of the Veritas
Volume Manager Administrator’s Guide.
