Hi Ajay,
If you want to specify the Hard disk please use below command.
By defauls it will allocate a sub-disk from the free space in the DG.
vxassist -g (dg) mirror (volume name) (hard disk name)
Regards
Paddy

If I have more than one LUNs ..lets say if i have LUNs to mirror 5
volumes...will the command "vxassist -g <dg> -mirror <volname>" work? How does
vxassist know what disk to choose ?
Can I use vxmake to mirror the volume ?
Regards,
Ajay

No need to make the subdisk and plex - just add the new disk to the diskgroup
(vxdiskadm is the easiest way for a beginner). Then run "vxassist -g <dg>
-mirror <volname>"

Hi All,
I created a volume consisting of a single plex and subdisk with vxassist. I am
looking to mirror it now. The storage person has allocated me another disk of
the same size . I intend to make a subdisk and plex and then attach it to the
existing volume . Will this activity serve my purpose ? Please advise .
The command I used to create the volume - vxassist -g <dg> make <volname> 30g
<disk>
Regards,
Ajay
