You can convert shared disk groups on a master node or a slave node. If you run the vxdg command to convert the shared disk group on a slave node, the command is shipped to the master and executed on the master.
To convert a shared disk group to a private disk group, first deport it on the master node using this command:
# vxdg deport diskgroup
Then reimport the disk group on any cluster node using this command:
# vxdg import diskgroup
