5 Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 This chapter discusses how to set up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1. Setting Up New File System with Base-VXFS 4.1 After installing Base-VXFS 4.1, you can create a file system on a VERITAS Volume Manager 4.1 volume or on an HP Logical Volume Manager (LVM) volume. To set up new file systems using Base-VXFS 4.1, complete the following procedure: Step 1.
PAGE 34
Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 /opt/VRTS/vxfs4.1/man directory is automatically added to the /etc/MANPATH. Make sure that /opt/VRTS/vxfs4.1/man appears before /usr/share/man in your MANPATH environment variable to display the latest version of the Base-VXFS 4.1 manpages. Upgrading the Base-VXFS Disk Layout Base-VXFS 4.1 enables you to mount the following file system disk layouts: • Disk Layout Version 4 • Disk Layout Version 5 • Disk Layout Version 6 The default layout for Base-VXFS 4.
PAGE 35
Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 To upgrade an existing Base-VXFS 4.1 disk layout to Disk Layout Version 6 while the file system remains online, run the following command: # vxupgrade -n 6 /mount_point The -n option is used to specify the disk layout version number to which to upgrade. You can use the vxfsconvert command to upgrade file systems, while they are offline, from Disk Layout Version 3 to Disk Layout Version 4.
PAGE 36
Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 VxVM uses license keys to control access. If you have not yet installed a VxVM license key on your system, you will need to do so if you want to use the full functionality of the product. Licensing information: System host ID: Host type: Are you prepared to enter a license key [y,n,q] (default: n) n Step 2.
PAGE 37
Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 required in VxVM 4.1. However, you may find it convenient to create a system wide default disk group. For operations that require a disk group, the system wide default disk group is used if the VxVM command is not specified with the -g option. The main advantage of creating a default disk group is that VxVM commands default to the default disk group, and you do not need to use the -g option. Step 4.
PAGE 38
Setting Up Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 Setting Up a VEA Client To run VEA and administer a local or remote system, ensure that you have sufficient privileges. Also, ensure that the VxVM and the VEA server are installed on the same machine to be administered and that the vxconfigd daemon and the VEA server are running.

6 Removing Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 This chapter discusses how to remove the Base-VXFS 4.1 SD-Bundle and Base-VXVM 4.1 SD-Bundle from your system. Removing the Base-VXFS 4.1 This section describes how to remove Base-VXFS 4.1. The new tunables for Base-VXFS 4.1, such as inode_aging_size, inode_aging_count, fcl_maxalloc, fcl_keeptime, fcl_winterval, and oltp_load, must be removed from the tunefstab file. The OnLineJFS/JFS 3.5 vxtunefs command does not recognize the Base-VXFS 4.1 tunables.

Removing Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 Removing Base-VXVM 4.1 • Data from any volume that was created from multiple regions of storage, including striped or spanned volumes, must be moved to a single disk or to an appropriate LVM logical volume. See “Moving Base-VXVM 4.1 Volumes to LVM Volumes” on page 43. • Base-VXVM 4.1 must be shut down. See “Shutting Down Base-VXVM 4.1” on page 45. Removing Plexes To remove plexes, complete the following steps: Step 1.
PAGE 44
Removing Base-VXFS 4.1 and Base-VXVM 4.1 a. Evacuate as many disks as possible. Evacuation moves sub-disks from the source disks to target disks. The evacuated disks provide the initial free disk space for volumes to be moved to LVM volumes. Disks can be evacuated in one of the following ways: • Using the vxdiskadm command with the remove disk option. • Using the vxevac script. b. Remove the evacuated disks from Base-VXVM 4.

Copy the data in the next volume to be removed to the newly created free space. k. Reboot the system after all volumes have been converted successfully. l. To verify that no open volumes remain on the system, run the following command: # vxprint -Aht -e v_open m. If any volumes remain open, repeat steps a to l.
