A new LU cannot be added via dynamic reconfiguration when you are

using VxVM, because the host must be restarted in order to use (in

VxVM) an LU that has been newly added to HDLM. Perform the

procedure described in

Adding a New LU By Restarting the Nodes

(When Using Solaris Cluster) on page 4-25

.

For details on the precautions for the dlmcfgmgr utility, see

To add a new LU:

1

.

Set up the storage system and switch so that Solaris recognizes the LU.

2

.

Check the LU newly recognized by the node and its disk label.
Use the format command to check the LU and verify that the disk label is

specified. The following figure shows an example of the format command.

The shaded portion represents the newly recognized LU.

Figure 4-3 Example of executing the format command

In the above execution example, when you specify an LU, the message
Disk not labeled. Label it now? will be output if a disk label has not

been specified. In this case, enter y and specify a disk label.

If setup is performed for Quorum devices and disk device groups, on an

LU newly recognized by the node, release these settings.
When you unregister the SDS or SVM diskset, the diskset data will be

deleted so first back up any necessary data. For details on how to remove

settings for Quorum devices and VxVM disk groups, see
