Enabling Database Validator Checking with LVM Considerations

LVM may write metadata to the volume depending on the volume configuration. In this case, you must
exclude the metadata area from the validation target range. You can specify the target range for
each volume with the extended parameters of raidvchkset −vs option. See the HP StorageWorks XP
RAID Manager User's Guide
for the exact syntax. The vxdisk list and vxdg list commands show the
range of metadata regions for the VxVM LVM, which are called private regions. See the VxVM
documentation for information on private regions.

Figure 8

is an example of using the VxVM vxdisk list command to determine the target range and the

correct syntax for excluding the metadata from the validation target range. This example is specifically
for the Redo log.
