ADD DISK Example for Virtual Disks
See the procedure and considerations for “Adding a Virtual Disk” (page 147).
To add the virtual disk $VDISK00 to the storage pool $POOL01:
-> ADD DISK $VDISK00, SENDTO STORAGE, ANTLOCATION $DATA00, &
-> POOL $POOL01, PENDOPSLOCATION $DATA00, TYPE VIRTUAL
Attribute Descriptions for Disk Commands
This list describes all the attributes that can be used to define physical disks, virtual disks, and disk
profiles. Attributes that are not valid for certain commands, the PROFILE object, or virtual disks are
indicated accordingly.
ALTNAME $vol
is an alternate volume name for the disk.
This attribute changes the alternate volume name on the label of the disk but does not change
the system configuration database.
If the storage subsystem tries to start a volume and the default volume name is already in use,
the volume is started using the alternate volume name. If the alternate volume name is also in
use, the storage subsystem uses the volume name in the system configuration database and
the disk is left in the DOWN state.
To use this attribute, see “Naming a Disk” (page 88)
NOTE: This attribute is not valid for the ADD DISK command and the PROFILE object.
ANTCAPACITY number
is the maximum number of entries in the virtual-disk, audited-name table.
NOTE: This attribute is only valid for virtual disks.
number is in the range 0 through 2500000. The default is 12288.
The value of this attribute must be large enough to hold not only the temporary and permanent
files to be created on the virtual disk but also the normal overhead associated with
key-sequenced files, as documented in the Enscribe Programmer’s Guide.
ANTLOCATION { $vol | $vol.subvol.fileid }
is the disk location of the audited-name table for the virtual disk
NOTE: This attribute is only valid for virtual disks and cannot be used with the ALTER DISK
command.
This attribute is required for the ADD command and has no default (not even when you use
the LIKE attribute).
If you use the $vol.subvol.fileid format, fileid must exist and must reside in a
subvolume whose name begins with ZYS.
If you use the $vol format, $vol must be in the STARTED state, enabled in TMF, and configured
to be in a storage pool. The virtual disk determines the subvolume name and file ID for the
audited-name table it creates.
