About Veritas Volume Manager commands

Most Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) commands (excepting daemons, library

commands and supporting scripts) are linked to the /usr/sbin directory from

the /opt/VRTS/bin directory. It is recommended that you add the following

directories to your PATH environment variable:

■ If you are using the Bourne or Korn shell (sh or ksh), use the commands:

$ PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin:/opt/VRTS/bin:/opt/VRTSvxfs/sbin:\

/opt/VRTSdbed/bin:/opt/VRTSdb2ed/bin:/opt/VRTSsybed/bin:\

/opt/VRTSob/bin

$ MANPATH=/usr/share/man:/opt/VRTS/man:$MANPATH

$ export PATH MANPATH

■ If you are using a C shell (csh or tcsh), use the commands:

% set path = ( $path /usr/sbin /opt/VRTSvxfs/sbin \

/opt/VRTSdbed/bin /opt/VRTSdb2ed/bin /opt/VRTSsybed/bin \

/opt/VRTSob/bin /opt/VRTS/bin )

% setenv MANPATH /usr/share/man:/opt/VRTS/man:$MANPATH
