Veritas Volume Manager 5.1 SP1 Administrator"s Guide (5900-1506, April 2011)

To enable DRL or sequential DRL logging on the newly created volume, use

the following command:

# vxvol [-g diskgroup] set logtype=drl|drlseq volume

If you use ordered allocation when creating a mirrored volume on specified

storage, you can use the optional logdisk attribute to specify on which disks

dedicated log plexes should be created. Use the following form of the vxassist

command to specify the disks from which space for the logs is to be allocated:

# vxassist [-g diskgroup] -o ordered make volume length \

layout=mirror logtype=log_type logdisk=disk[,disk,...] \

storage_attributes

If you do not specify the logdisk attribute, vxassist locates the logs in the

data plexes of the volume.

See “Specifying ordered allocation of storage to volumes” on page 308.

See the vxassist(1M) manual page.

See the vxvol(1M) manual page.
