Displaying the raw device access settings for a volume set

You can use the vxprint -m command to display the current settings for a volume set. If the makedev attribute is set to on, one of the following is displayed in the output:

vset_devinfo=on:read-only Raw device nodes in read-only mode.

vset_devinfo=on:read-write Raw device nodes in read-write mode.

This field is not displayed if makedev is set to off.


  Note   If the output from the vxprint -m command is fed to the vxmake command to recreate a volume set, the vset_devinfo attribute must set to off. Use the vxvset set command to re-enable raw device access with the desired access mode as described in Controlling raw device access for an existing volume set.
