Starting Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) on the new node

Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) uses license keys to control access. As you run the vxinstall utility, answer n to prompts about licensing. You installed the appropriate license when you ran the installer program.

To start VxVM on the new node

  1. To start VxVM on the new node, use the vxinstall utility:
    # vxinstall
  2. Enter n when prompted to set up a system wide disk group for the system.

    The installation completes.

  3. Verify that the daemons are up and running. Enter the command:
    # vxdisk list

    Make sure the output displays the shared disks without errors.
