Adding Disks to a Storage Pool

To add one or more initialized disks to the storage pool, use the following command:


# vxpool [-g diskgroup] adddisk storage_pool dm=dm1[,dm2,...]

The following example shows two disks, mydg04 and mydg05, being added to the storage pool, mypool:


vxpool -g mydg adddisk mypool dm=mydg04,mydg05
Note   Note    Any disks that you add to a storage pool must have already been initialized for use, and must belong to the same disk group as the storage pool.

If a storage pool's autogrow policy is set to diskgroup, ISP automatically brings additional disks from the disk group into the storage pool as required.
