createvv

DESCRIPTION

The createvv command creates volumes that are provisioned from one or more Common

Provisioning Groups (CPGs). Volumes can be fully provisioned from a CPG or can be thinly

provisioned. You can optionally specify a CPG for snapshot space for fully provisioned volumes.

Syntax

createvv [options] <usr_CPG> <VV_name> [.<index>] <size>[g|G|t|T]

AUTHORITY

• Super, Edit

• Any role that is granted the vv_create right.

NOTE: You need access to all domains in order to run this command with logical disks specified.

OPTIONS

-templ <template_name>

Use the options defined in template <tname>. The template is created using the createtemplate

command. Options specified in the template are read-only or read/write. The read/write options

may be overridden with new options at creation time but read-only options may not be overridden

their default values, and all of these options are either read-only or read/write (using the -nro or

-nrw options of the createtemplate command). If not included, the -size and -usr_cpg

options are automatically treated as read-write even if the other not included properties are marked

read-only.

-i <ID>

Specifies the ID of the volume. The default is the next available ID.

–cnt <count>

Specifies the number of identical VVs to create. This must be an integer from 1 through 999. If

<id> is specified with -i option, it is used as the ID of the first VV and incremented by 1 for each

subsequent volume.

-shared

Specifies that the system will try to share the Logical Disks (LDs) among the VVs. This option can

only be used with the -cnt option. This option cannot be used with the -tpvv option.

-wait <secs>

If the command would fail due to the lack of clean space, the -wait option specifies the number

of seconds to wait for the system to clean the dirty space before returning. If -wait 0 is issued,

the command returns immediately. If this option is not used, the command will keep waiting for

dirty chunklets to be cleaned if enough space will be available with the dirty chunklets cleaned.

This option cannot be used with the -tpvv option.

-exp <time>[d|D|h|H]

Specifies the relative time from the current time that volume will expire. <time> is a positive integer

value and in the range of 1 - 43,800 hours (1,825 days). Time can be optionally specified in days

or hours providing either d or D for day and h or H for hours following the entered time value.

-comment <comment>

Specifies any additional information up to 511 characters in length for the volume.

-f
