If you screw up a system, don't blame it on me... :: vxassist -g ${group} make ${vol} ${length}m layout=stripe [ ${disks[*]} ] For example:: vxassist -g doug make vol01 2048m layout=stripe ${disks[*]} Notes: * ${length} will default to sectors, so make sure you put a 'm' after the number to indicate megs. The example above creates a 2 gig volume. * The **${disks[*]}** array is used if you want to stripe the volume across specific disks. If you don't put it in there, it will stripe across all disks in the disk group. * If you don't specify either the disks or the disk group, the command will default to rootdg.
