Chapter 8: Configure Dynamic Volumes 90
Select the dynamic volumes that you want to import and click the Import
icon in the toolbar.
To import dynamic volumes from the command line, first use the
following command to list the dynamic volumes that can be imported:
mx dynvolume list --importable
Locate the entry for the <volumeGUID> that you want to import. The
<volumeGUID> appears in the first column of the output.
Then use the following command to import the volume, specifying the
<volumeGUID>.
mx dynvolume import <volumeGUID> ...
Unimported Volumes
An unimported volume is a dynamic volume that does not have a psv
binding. Instead, it is identified by its GUID, such as 8a61bb5c-88ac-48c2-
97c5-6e9c04817a5, which was generated when the volume was created.
Unimported volumes are either importable or unimportable.
The following command lists all unimported volumes:
mx dynvolume list --unimported
Importable Volumes
All of the constituent parts for the volume are accessible, and the volume
can be reassembled into a dynamic volume when it is imported into the
cluster. These volumes are listed as
IMPORTABLE on the Import Dynamic
Volume window and can be displayed with this command:
mx dynvolume list --importable
Unimportable Volumes
An unimportable volume cannot be reassembled into a dynamic volume,
and cannot be imported into the cluster. The following command
displays the status of volumes that cannot be imported:
mx dynvolume list --unimportable
The status will be Duplicate, Truncated, or Incomplete.
