For a disk group to be compatible with the Cross-platform Data Sharing feature, the alignment value must be set to 8k (16 sectors). To set the alignment value, use either the vxdg(1m) or vxcdsconvert(1m) commands:

 

# vxdg -g diskgroup set align=8k

 

or

 

# vxcdsconvert -g diskgroup alignment

 

For more information, see the vxdg(1m) or vxcdsconvert(1m) man pages.
