HP XP7 RAID Manager Reference Guide (T1610-96064)

raidcom add journal
Registers (adds) a volume to a journal.
This makes a Journal for "Open System" or "M/F System" to the specified LDEVs.
If the journal already exists, the specified LDEV is added to the journal.
If the journal does not exist, you must create it first, and then add an LDEV.
If the -timer_type option is specified, this command makes a journal as "M/F System". If not, this
command makes a journal as "Open System".
A device group can also be specified instead of an LDEV.
This command is executed asynchronously with the command input. Check the completion of this
process on the raidcom get command_status command.
