How to add an unsupported array to VxVM for DMP purposes?
-
1.) Find the Vendor ID (VID) and Product ID (PID)
# /etc/vx/diag.d/vxdmpinq device_name
Where device_name is the raw device path of one of the disks in the array
2.) Add the JBOD to DDL, essentially DMP
# vxddladm addjbod vid=vendorid pid=productid [length=serialno_length]
3.) Bring the array under VxVM control
# vxdiskconfig
4.) Verify JBOD is now supported
# vxddladm listjbod
5.) Verify Connectivity, should see status CONNECTED and in the DISKS category
# vxdmpadm listenclosure all
6.) Verify disks in the array
# vxdisk list
7.) Verify DMP Paths are established, you should see 2 under PATHS for each disk
# vxdmpadm getdmpnode enclosure=Disk
