To display information on existing disk groups, enter the following command:
# vxdg list NAME STATE ID rootdg enabled 730344554.1025.tweety newdg enabled 731118794.1213.tweety
To display more detailed information on a specific disk group, use the following command:
# vxdg list diskgroup
When you apply this command to a disk group named mydg, the output is similar to the following:
# vxdg list mydg
Group: mydg dgid: 962910960.1025.bass import-id: 0.1 flags: version: 150 local-activation: read-write alignment: 512 (bytes) ssb: on detach-policy: local copies: nconfig=default nlog=default config: seqno=0.1183 permlen=3448 free=3428 templen=12 loglen=522 config disk hdisk9 copy 1 len=3448 state=clean online config disk hdisk17 copy 1 len=3448 state=clean online log disk hdisk9 copy 1 len=522 log disk hdisk17 copy 1 len=522
To verify the disk group ID and name that is associated with a specific disk (for example, to import the disk group), use the following command:
# vxdisk -s list devicename
This command provides output that includes the following information for the specified disk. For example, output for disk hdisk21 as follows:
Disk: hdisk21 type: simple flags: online ready private autoconfig autoimport imported diskid: 963504891.1070.bass dgname: newdg dgid: 963504895.1075.bass hostid: bass info: privoffset=128
