Adding a volume to a volume set

After creating a volume set, you can add additional volumes.

To add a volume to a volume set

Use the vxvset command as follows:

# /usr/sbin/vxvset [-g diskgroup] [-f] addvol volset \
volume

Warning:

The -f (force) option must be specified if the volume being added, or any volume in the volume set, is either a snapshot or the parent of a snapshot. Using this option can potentially cause inconsistencies in a snapshot hierarchy if any of the volumes involved in the operation is already in a snapshot chain.

See the Veritas Volume Manager Administrator's Guide.

For example, to add the volume db02, to the volume set db01vset, use the following command:

# /usr/sbin/vxvset -g PRODdg addvol db01vset db02
