After Configuring the Disk Drive
After configuring the HP-UX operating system for a disk device, you can complete
the following tasks required to put it to use:
■ setting up powerfail capabilities for the disk or disk array
■ setting up or modifying RAID levels for a disk array, if necessary
■ adding a disk to an LVM volume group
■ mirroring the disk
■ defining logical volumes in LVM
■ making the disk available for swapping
■ creating or moving file systems onto the disk
■ exporting the disk using NFS capabilities
■ controlling access to the information on the disk
■ controlling disk usage by implementing disk quotas
■ integrating the disk into your backup strategy
■ restoring data to the disk from other disks
■ moving file systems to more equitably use your disk space
■ creating a recovery system for the data on the disk, particularly if this is the
root disk
Once you have configured a disk and are creating a file system, the HP-UX
operating system uses the correct disk geometry, without requiring you to cite an
explicit /etc/disktab entry.
For information about these tasks, see the HP-UX Operating System: Fault Tolerant
System Administration (R1004H), the Managing Systems and
Workgroups (B2355-90157), relevant hardware manuals, and the online man pages.
