Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) allows you to place disks under VxVM control, to initialize disks, and to remove and replace disks.
Disks that are controlled by the LVM subsystem cannot be used directly as VxVM disks, but the disks can be converted so that their volume groups and logical volumes become VxVM disk groups and volumes.
Note: |
This release only supports the conversion of LVM version 1 volume groups to VxVM. It does not support the conversion of LVM version 2 volume groups. |
See the Veritas Volume Manager Migration Guide.
The dynamic multipathing (DMP) feature of VxVM is used to administer multiported disk arrays.
