DESCRIPTION

32       The svadm command controls the Storage Volume (SV) driver by  providing
33       facilities  to  enable and disable the SV driver for specified volumes,
34       and to dynamically reconfigure the system.
35

OPTIONS

37       If you specify no arguments to an svadm command, the  utility  displays
38       the list of volumes currently under SV control. svadm supports the fol‐
39       lowing options:
40
41       -C tag
42
43           On a clustered  node,  limits  operations  to  only  those  volumes
44           belonging to the cluster resource group, or disk group name, speci‐
45           fied by tag. This option is illegal on a system that is  not  clus‐
46           tered.  The  special tag, local, can be used to limit operations to
47           only those volumes that cannot switch over to other  nodes  in  the
48           cluster.
49
50
51       -d
52
53           Disables  the  SV  devices  specified on the command line or in the
54           configuration file. If -C tag is specified with this  option,  then
55           the volume should be in this cluster disk group.
56
57
58       -e
59
60           Enables the SV devices specified on the command line or in the con‐
61           figuration file. Details of the volume are  saved  in  the  current
62           configuration.  See  dscfg(1M).  If  -C  tag is specified with this
63           option, then the volume should be in this cluster disk group.
64
65
66       -f config_file
67
68           Specifies a configuration file that contains a list of  volumes.  A
69           command  reads this volume list and then perform the operation. The
70           format of the config_file is a simple list of volume pathnames, one
71           per line. Blank lines and lines starting with the comment character
72           (#) are ignored.
73
74
75       -h
76
77           Displays the svadm usage summary.
78
79
80       -i
81
82           Displays extended status for the volumes currently  under  SV  con‐
83           trol.
84
85
86       -r
87
88           When  a config_file is specified, reconfigure the running system to
89           match the configuration specified in the config_file. When  the  -C
90           option  is  specified,  compare the cluster tag for each volume and
91           change it to cluster_tag.  If  a  volume  is  specified  with  this
92           option,  it is valid only to reconfigure the cluster tag associated
93           with the volume. The -e or -d options should be used to  enable  or
94           disable single volumes.
95
96
97       -v
98
99           Displays the SV version number.

USAGE

103       When  an  SV volume is enabled, normal system call access to the device
104       (see intro(2)) is redirected into the StoreEdge architecture  software.
105       This  allows  standard  applications to use StorageTek features such as
106       Sun StorageTek Point-in-Time Copy and Remote Mirror Software.
107
108
109       The svadm command generates an entry  in  the  Availability  Suite  log
110       file,  /var/adm/ds.log (see ds.log(4)), when performing enable (-e) and
111       disable (-d) operations.
