Enter the following command to add a new JBOD category:
# vxddladm addjbod vid=vendorid [pid=productid] \
[serialnum=opcode/pagecode/offset/length]
[cabinetnum=opcode/pagecode/offset/length] policy={aa|ap}]
where vendorid and productid are the VID and PID values that you found
from the previous step. For example, vendorid might be FUJITSU, IBM, or
SEAGATE. For Fujitsu devices, you must also specify the number of characters
in the serial number as the argument to the length argument (for example,
10). If the array is of type A/A-A, A/P or A/PF, you must also specify the
policy=ap attribute.
Continuing the previous example, the command to define an array of disks
of this type as a JBOD would be:
# vxddladm addjbod vid=SEAGATE pid=ST318404LSUN18G
5
Use the vxdctl enable command to bring the array under VxVM control.
# vxdctl enable
See “Enabling discovery of new disk arrays” on page 86.
6
To verify that the array is now supported, enter the following command:
# vxddladm listjbod
The following is sample output from this command for the example array:
VID PID SerialNum CabinetNum Policy
(Cmd/PageCode/off/len) (Cmd/PageCode/off/len)
