2.5 mkvg创建卷组
注意：
一个物理卷只能属于一个卷组，一个卷组可以包含多个物理卷，因此，在创建卷组时，要确认某物理卷是否已经挂在某个卷组下。
语法：
mkvg [ -B ] [ -t factor ] [ -S [ -v LogicalVolumes ] [ -P Partitions ] ][ -C ] [ -G ] [ -f ] [ -i ] [ -I ][ -c ] [ -x ] [ -L LTGSize ] [ -n ] [ -s Size ] [ -V MajorNumber ] [ -y VolumeGroup ] PhysicalVolume ...
Flags
-B
Creates a Big-type volume group. This can accommodate up to 128 physical volumes and 512 logical volumes. Note: Because the VGDA space has been increased substantially, every VGDA update operation (creating a logical volume, changing a log ical volume, adding a physical volume, and so on) may take considerably longer to run.
-f
Forces the volume group to be created on the specified physical volume unless the physical volume is part of another volume group in the Device Configuration Database or a volume group that is active.
-n
Specifies that the volume group is not automatically available during a system restart. The default value activates the volume group automatically.
-P Partitions
Total number of partitions in the volume group, where the Partitions variable is represented in units of 1024 partitions. Valid values are 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 768, 1024 and 2048. The default is 32 k (32768 partitions). The chvg command can be used to increase the number of partitions up to the maximum of 2048 k (2097152 partitions). This option is only valid with the
-S
Creates a Scalable-type volume group. By default, this volume group can accommodate up to 1024 physical volumes, 256 logical volumes and 32768 physical partitions. To increase the number of logical volumes, use the -v option. To increase the number of physical partitions, use the -P option. Note: Increasing maxlvs and maxpps beyond the default values for a scalable volume group can significantly increase the size of the VGDA proportionately. The maxlvs and maxpps values should only be increased as needed because they cannot be decreased. Meanwhile, as the VGDA space increases all VGDA update operations (creating a logical volume, changing a logical volume, adding a physical volume, and so on) can take longer and longer to run.
-s Size
Sets the number of megabytes in each physical partition, where the Size variable is expressed in units of megabytes from 1 (1 MB) through 131072 (128 GB). The Size variable must be equal to a power of 2 (example 1, 2, 4, 8). The default value for 32 and 128 PV volume groups will be the lowest value to remain within the limitation of 1016 physical partitions per PV. The
default value for scalable volume groups will be the lowest value to accommodate 2040 physical partitions per PV.
-v
Number of logical volumes that can be created. Valid values are 256, 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096. The default is 256. The chvg command can be used to increase the number of logical volumes up to the maximum of 4096. This option is only valid with the -S option. The last logical volume is reserved for metadata.
-y VolumeGroup
Specifies the volume group name rather than having the name generated automatically. Volume group names must be unique system wide and can range from 1 to 15 characters. The name cannot begin with a prefix already defined in the PdDv class in the Device Configuration database for other devices. The volume group name created is sent to standard output.
The volume group name can only contain the following characters: "A" through "Z," "a" through "z," "0" through "9," or "_" (the underscore), "-" (the minus sign), or "." (the period). All
other characters are considered invalid.
Eg:
#mkvg –y ‘testvg’ –s ‘256’ –n testpv1 testpv2 testpv3
说明：用物理卷testpv1、testpv2和testpv3组成一个名称为testvg卷组，每个PP大小为256M，每次系统启动都会自动挂载。
2.6 mklv创建逻辑卷
语法：
mklv [ -a Position ] [ -b BadBlocks ] [ -c Copies ] [ -C Stripe_width ] [ -d Schedule ] [ -e Range ] [ -i ] [ -L Label ] [ -m MapFile ] [ -o y / n ] [ -r Relocate ] [ -s Strict ] [ -t Type ] [ -T O ] [ -u UpperBound ] [ -v Verify ] [ -w MirrorWriteConsistency ] [ -x Maximum ] [ -y NewLogicalVolume | -Y Prefix ] [ -S StripSize ] [ -U Userid ] [ -G Groupid ] [ -P Modes ] VolumeGroup Number [ PhysicalVolume ... ]
Common falgs:
-a Position
Sets the intra-physical volume allocation policy (the position of the logical partitions on the physical volume)
-c Copies
Sets the number of physical partitions allocated for each logical partition. The Copies variable can be set to a value from 1 to 3; the default is 1.
-t Type
Sets the logical volume type. The standard types are jfs (journaled file systems), jfslog (journaled file system logs), jfs2 (enhanced journaled file system), jfs2log (enhanced journaled file system logs), and paging (paging spaces), but a user can define other logical volume types with this flag. You cannot create a striped logical volume of type boot. The default is jfs.
If a log is manually created for a filesystem, the user must run the logform command to clean out the new jfslog before the log can be used. For example, to format the logical volume
-x Maximum
Sets the maximum number of logical partitions that can be allocated to the logical volume. The default value is 512. The number represented by the Number parameter must be equal to or less than the number represented by the Maximum variable.
-y NewLogicalVolume
Specifies the logical volume name rather than having the name generated automatically. Logical volume names must be unique system wide and can range from 1 to 15 characters. If the volume group is varied on in concurrent mode, the new logical volume name should be unique across all the concurrent nodes where the volume group is varied on. The name cannot begin with a prefix already defined in the PdDv class in the Device Configuration Database for other devices.
Eg:
#mklv –y testlv –t raw –s n –w n –r n testvg 15
说明：在testvg卷组中新建一个名为testlv的逻辑卷，大小为15个PP，逻辑卷类型使用的是裸设备，没设置分配策略，禁止逻辑卷被迁移。
2.7 chlv修改逻辑卷
修改逻辑卷的属性，可以通过smitty命令来设置逻辑卷属性。
语法：
chlv [ -a Position ] [ -b BadBlocks ] [ -d Schedule ] [ -e Range ] [ -L label ] [ -o Y / N ] [ -p Permission ] [ -r Relocate ] [ -s Strict ] [ -t Type ] [ -u Upperbound ] [ -v Verify ] [ -w MirrorWriteConsistency ] [ -x Maximum ] [ -T O / F ] [ -U Userid ] [ -G Groupid ] [ -P Modes ] LogicalVolume ...
eg:
chlv -t jfs -x 256 testlv
说明：把逻辑卷testlv的类型改为“jfs”，同时修改逻辑卷最大物理卷的数据为：256。
