Listing shared disk groups

vxdg can be used to list information about shared disk groups. To display information for all disk groups, use the following command:

# vxdg list

Example output from this command is displayed here:

NAME       STATE              ID
group2     enabled,shared     774575420.1170.teal
group1     enabled,shared     774222028.1090.teal

Shared disk groups are designated with the flag shared.

To display information for shared disk groups only, use the following command:

# vxdg -s list

Example output from this command is as follows:

NAME     STATE            ID
group2   enabled,shared   774575420.1170.teal
group1   enabled,shared   774222028.1090.teal 

To display information about one specific disk group, use the following command:

# vxdg list diskgroup

The following is example output for the command vxdg list tempdg on the master:

Group:     tempdg
dgid:      1245902808.74.ts4200-04
import-id: 33792.73
flags:     shared cds
version:   150
alignment: 8192 (bytes)
local-activation: shared-write
cluster-actv-modes: ts4200-04=sw ts4200-06=sw ts4200-05=sw
ssb:            on
autotagging:    on
detach-policy: global
dg-fail-policy: dgdisable
copies:    nconfig=default nlog=default
config:    seqno=0.1027 permlen=0 free=0 templen=0 loglen=0

Note that the flags field is set to shared. The output for the same command when run on a slave is slightly different. The local-activation and cluster-actv-modes fields display the activation mode for this node and for each node in the cluster respectively. The detach-policy and dg-fail-policy fields indicate how the cluster behaves in the event of loss of connectivity to the disks, and to the configuration and log copies on the disks.
