Adding new SCSI disks and mounting in New FS

[rdoss]

Hi,

I want to add the new SCSI disks to AIX server and mount them in a new file system. I think the server recognizes the new SCSI disks but i am not able to mount them in a file system.

Please let me know how can i do this.

thanks

First, note if your system recognizes your new disk with
[tt]lspv[/tt]
There, you'll note a new disk without a volume group.
Second, you must add the disk to a volume group with
[tt]extendvg volume_group_name disk_name[/tt]
You can use rootvg for the volume group name, but it's not recommendable.
Third, use [tt]smit fs[/tt] to create the file system.

I hope it works...
PS: I can suggest you the IBM course class Q1114 "AIX v4 System Administration", call to the local IBM Office at your country.
