Stopping and starting volume sets

Under some circumstances, you may need to stop and restart a volume set. For example, a volume within the set may have become detached, as shown here:

# vxvset -g mydg list set1

VOLUME INDEX LENGTH KSTATE CONTEXT

vol1 0 12582912 DETACHED -

vol2 1 12582912 ENABLED -

vol3 2 12582912 ENABLED -

To stop and restart one or more volume sets, use the following commands:

# vxvset [-g diskgroup] stop volset ...

# vxvset [-g diskgroup] start volset ...

For the example given previously, the effect of running these commands on the component volumes is shown below:

# vxvset -g mydg stop set1

# vxvset -g mydg list set1

VOLUME INDEX LENGTH KSTATE CONTEXT

vol1 0 12582912 DISABLED -

vol2 1 12582912 DISABLED -

vol3 2 12582912 DISABLED -

# vxvset -g mydg start set1

# vxvset -g mydg list set1

VOLUME INDEX LENGTH KSTATE CONTEXT

vol1 0 12582912 ENABLED -

vol2 1 12582912 ENABLED -

vol3 2 12582912 ENABLED -
