Discovering and configuring newly added disk devices
This command displays the vendor ID (VID), product IDs (PIDs) for the arrays,
array types (for example, A/A or A/P), and array names. The following is sample
output.
# vxddladm listsupport libname=libvxfujitsu.so
ATTR_NAME ATTR_VALUE
=================================================
LIBNAME libvxfujitsu.so
VID vendor
PID GR710, GR720, GR730
GR740, GR820, GR840
ARRAY_TYPE A/A, A/P
ARRAY_NAME FJ_GR710, FJ_GR720, FJ_GR730
FJ_GR740, FJ_GR820, FJ_GR840
Excluding support for a disk array library
To exclude all arrays that depend on a particular array library from
participating in device discovery, use the following command:
# vxddladm excludearray libname=libvxenc.sl
This example excludes support for disk arrays that depends on the library
libvxenc.sl. You can also exclude support for disk arrays from a particular
vendor, as shown in this example:
# vxddladm excludearray vid=ACME pid=X1
For more information about excluding disk array support, see the vxddladm (1M)
manual page.
Re-including support for an excluded disk array library
If you have excluded support for all arrays that depend on a particular disk
array library, you can use the includearray keyword to remove the entry
from the exclude list, as shown in the following example:
# vxddladm includearray libname=libvxenc.sl
This command adds the array library to the database so that the library can once
again be used in device discovery. If vxconfigd is running, you can use the
vxdisk scandisks command to discover the arrays and add their details to the
database.
Listing excluded disk arrays
To list all disk arrays that are currently excluded from use by VxVM, use the
following command:
# vxddladm listexclude
