The following command removes disks rootdg07 and rootdg08 from rootdg to

form a new disk group, mydg:

# vxdg -o expand split rootdg mydg rootdg07 rootdg08

The moved volumes are initially disabled following the split. Use the following

commands to recover and restart the volumes in the new target disk group:

# vxrecover -g targetdg -m [volume ...]

# vxvol -g targetdg startall

The output from vxprint after the split shows the new disk group, mydg:

# vxprint
