Replacing a disk in a CDS disk group

 To replace a disk in a CDS disk group

  Note   When replacing a disk in a CDS disk group, you cannot use a non-CDS disk as the replacement.

• Type the following commands:

  # vxdg -k rmdisk disk_name

  # vxdg -k adddisk disk_name=disk_access_name

The -k option retains and reuses the disk media record for the disk that is being replaced. The following example shows a Solaris disk device c1t0d1 being reassigned to disk disk1.

# vxdg -k rmdisk disk1

# vxdg -k adddisk disk1=c1t0d1

For other operating systems, use the appropriate device name format, for example, hdisk# on AIX, and sdx on Linux.
