Volume Creation and Administration


1.Create Volume "v_ryu"

#vol   create   <vol-name>   {   [-l   <language-code>]   [-s   {none   |   file   |   volume}]   <hosting-aggr-name>
<size>[k|m|g|t]
Above you can see the help for the command and the different options

#vol create v_ryu  -l C aggr0 100g

2.Deactivate snapshot in the volume "v_ryu"

#vol options v_ryu nosnap on

3.Deactivate snapdirectory for the snapshot

#vol options v_ryu nosnapdir on

4.Delete snapshot reservation to zero (No snap will be taken)

#snap reserve -V v_ryu 0

5.Verify that snapshot reservation is not activated

#snap reserve v_ryu
Volume v_ryu: current snapshot reserve is 0% or 0 k-bytes.

6.Resize the volume dinamically

vol size <vol-name> [[+|-]<size>[k|m|g|t]]
#vol size v_ryu +20g

Destroy Volume 

1.Put offline the volume" v_ryu"

#vol offline v_ryu

2. Destroy the volume

#vol destroy  /vol/v_ryu

 Create a LUN with Volume v_ryu for Windows across ISCSI

 Create  Lun with the volume generate in the first step

#lun create -s 20g -t windows /vol/v_ryu/ryu

2. Verify the new LUN device generated

#lun show /vol/v_ryu

3. In this case the Windows administrator will generate the initiator from server side and with that information add the server to it

#igroup -i -t windows banco iqn.1992-05.com.microsoft:maquina

4. Verify that "banco" is generated correctly in the filer (Netapp)

#igroup show banco

5.Perform a Lun Map in this case due to is the first server the igroup "banco" is associated to the zero "0"

# lun map /vol/v_cantv_banavih/banavih banco 0

LUN MAP across Fiber Channel  for Solaris

 1.Create LUN

#lun create -s 20g -t ntfs /vol/v_solaris_XXX/XXX

2. Create initiator group for FC

#igroup -f -t nfs triplexxx 0

3.Perform the LUN Map

#lun map /vol/v_solaris_XXX/XXX triplexxx 0
