How do I create a volume group using a non default extent size in hp-ux?



  • The default extent size is 4MB. Create volume group with 16MB extents, sometimes you may want to tailor you extent size to the size of data you will be storing onto the disk.

    # vgcreate -s 16 /dev/vg01 /dev/dsk/c1t1d0
    Increased the number of physical extents per physical volume to 4375.
    Volume group "/dev/vg01" has been successfully created.
    Volume Group configuration for /dev/vg01 has been saved in /etc/lvmconf/vg01.conf
