The LVMVG agent activates, deactivates, and monitors a Logical Volume Manager (LVM) volume group. The LVMVG agent supports JFS or JFS2. It does not support VxFS. This agent ensures that the ODM is in sync with changes to the volume group, specifically from the last time that the volume group was imported on the system. The LVMVG agent requires that date and time on all cluster nodes should be synchronized.

The LVMVG agent is also capable of ensuring high availability for AIX scalable volume group.
