Hi,
I am using an AIX mirror on two Clarion EMC storage systems.
I have to add 4 HDISKPOWER to an existing VG.
Is there an easy way to guaranty that each device has it's mirror on the remote storage system?

Thank you in advance!

Or go for MetaLUNs on your Clariion, if supported, so you have only 2 PVs to handle and with strictness you can be sure, each mirror is on a different Clariion.
MapFiles will then not be needed.
