NAME
vxevac — evacuate all volumes from a disk
SYNOPSIS
/etc/vx/bin/vxevac
[-g diskgroup\]
[-t tasktag\]
medianame
[new_medianame...]
DESCRIPTION
The
vxevac
utility moves subdisks off the specified Volume Manager disk
(medianame)
to the specified destination disks
(new_medianame...).
If no
new_medianame
arguments are specified,
any non-volatile,
non-reserved disks can be used as destination disks.
Subdisks that are part of unmirrored striped plexes
are moved by moving the entire plex to a new location.
Note: This operation assumes that there is sufficient space in
the disk group for the operation to complete.
If the process runs out of space,
some of the volumes on the disk may not be evacuated.
vxevac
is usually called from the
vxdiskadm
menus.
A
medianame
argument is an administrative name used
to define a disk within a disk group.
OPTIONS
- -g diskgroup
Specifies the disk group for the operation,
either by disk group ID or by disk group name.
- -t tasktag
Specifies an administrative operation to perform by the numeric identifier
tasktag.
