The following procedure describes how to provision new usable storage.
To provision new usable storage
Set up the LUN. See the documentation for your storage array for how to create, mask, and bind the LUN.
Initialize the LUNs for use by Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM):
# vxdisksetup -i 3PARDATA0_1 # vxdisk init 3PARDATA0_1
# vxassist -b -g dg1 make vol1 100g 3PARDATA0_1
Create a file system on the volume:
# mkfs -V vxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/dg1/vol1
Create a mount point on the file system:
# mkdir mount1
# mount -V vxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/dg1/vol1 /mount1
