J-8 Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual • May 2004
1. Create a directory for the volume group and a device file for the group in that
directory:
The name of the directory is the name of the volume group. By default, HP-UX uses
names of the format vgNN, but you can choose any name that is unique within the
list of volume groups.
In the preceding example, the mknod command has the following arguments:
■ The fully qualified path name of the new device file group
■ The letter c indicates a character device file
■ The major number 64 (used for all volume groups)
■ A minor number of the form 0xNN0000, where NN is the two-digit hexadecimal
representation of the volume group number (06 in the example)
To associate the physical volume with a volume group, use the vgcreate command:
#
mkdir /dev/vgmynewvg
# mknod /dev/vgmynewvg/group c 64 0x060000
# vgcreate /dev/vgmynewvg /dev/dsk/c12t6d2
