HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP operating system configuration guide for Tru64 UNIX XP24000, XP12000, XP10000, v01 (A5951-96066, June 2007)

Refer to Tru64 UNIX System Administration for detailed procedures.
Writing the partition labels
Use the disklabel command to label the partition for each logical unit. Partition c specifies the
entire area in the logical unit. Check that no errors are found in the partition settings after the labeling.
You can edit the disk partition size using the disklabel command with option –e. When the
disklabel –e command is executed, the vi editor for the environment in which you are working
starts up. After completing the editing, save the file and execute the disklabel command again;
the partition setting is renewed.
Procedure to write the partition label:
1. Enter disklabel –rw.
Specify the disk name.
Example — Tru64 5.1B
# disklabel –rw dsk10 OPEN-3
2. Enter disklabel –r to verify labeling and partition settings.
Specify the disk name.
Example — Tru64 5.1B
# disklabel –r dsk10
Creating the file systems
Create a file system for each new OPEN-x device. Optionally, you can create and use an advanced
file system (AdvFS) to overcome the size and speed limitations of the file system. If you are not sure
which file system is right for your setup, contact HP customer support.
Creating a file system for each device:
# newfs device_file_name
Creating an advanced file system:
You can create a new advanced file system domain, or you can add a new fileset to an existing
domain.
If you allocate multiple disk partitions to a domain, the advanced file system utilities must be installed.
Example
# addvol /dev/rzb8c domain1
1. Create a new domain.
# mkfdmn device_file_name domain_name
2. Create a new fileset in the new or existing advanced file system domain.
