Displaying free space in a disk group

Before you add volumes and file systems to your system, make sure you have enough free disk space to meet your needs.

To display free space in the system, use the following command:

# vxdg free

The following is example output:

GROUP DISK DEVICE TAG OFFSET LENGTH FLAGS

mydg mydg01 c0t10d0 c0t10d0  0 4444228 -

mydg mydg02 c0t11d0 c0t11d0  0 4443310 -

newdg newdg01 c0t12d0 c0t12d0   0 4443310 -

newdg newdg02 c0t13d0 c0t13d0  0 4443310 -

oradg oradg01 c0t14d0 c0t14d0  0 4443310 -

To display free space for a disk group, use the following command:

# vxdg -g diskgroup free

where -g diskgroup optionally specifies a disk group.

For example, to display the free space in the disk group, mydg, use the following command:

# vxdg -g mydg free

The following example output shows the amount of free space in sectors:
