![]() ![]() Option 3: Recognize disks that are added to internal scsi, hot swappable, disk connections. Option 2: Recognize the disks added to external SCSI, without reboot #reboot -r ( only if no applications running on the machine) Option 1: Reconfiguration Reboot ( for the server hardware models that doesn’t support hot swapping/dynamic addition of disks ) If the disks that are recently added to the server not visible, you can use below procedure Once we added new disks to the Server, first we should recognize the disks from the solaris level before proceeding for any other storage management utility. In Solaris we use the format utility used to partition the physical disks into slices. In solaris, physical disks will partitioned into slices numbered as S0, S1, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7 and the slice number S2 normally called as overlap slice and points to the entire disk. Internal disks to the server, Disks from the Disk Array and Disks from the SAN. Physical disks could be coming from different sources within the servers e.g. ![]() Below figure illustrates how the disk name changes depending on the connection. In Solaris physical disk names uses the convention like “ c#t#d#” where c# refers to controller/adapter connection, t# refers to the SCSI target Id, and d# refers to disk device Id. Physical disk is a basic storage where ultimate data will be stored. Subdisks are actual disk space segments of VxVM disk ( directly mapped from the physical disks) ![]() Volumes are composed of Plexes and Subdisksĭ. Virtual objects – are volumes, plexes, subdisks and diskgroups.ī. Physical objects – are direct mappings to physical disksĢ . VxVM uses two types of objects to perform the storage managementġ. Veritas Volume Manager is a storage management application by Symantec, which allows you to manage physical disks as logical devices called volumes. ![]()
