Example—Removing a Node From a Disk Device Group (Solstice DiskSuite/Solaris Volume Manager)

The following example shows the removal of the host name phys-schost-2 from a disk device group configuration. This example eliminates phys-schost-2 as a potential primary for the designated disk device group. Verify removal of the node by running the scstat -D command. Check that the removed node is no longer displayed in the screen text.


[Determine the Solstice DiskSuite/Solaris Volume Manager disk device group(2) for the node:]
# scconf -pv | grep Device
  Device group name:                 dg-schost-1
    Device group type:               SDS/SVM
    Device group failback enabled:   no
    Device group node list:          phys-schost-1, phys-schost-2
    Device group ordered node list:  yes
    Device group diskset name:    	         dg-schost-1
[Determine the disk device group(s) for the node:]
# scstat -D
  -- Device Group Servers --
                       Device Group  Primary        Secondary
                       ------------  -------        ---------
  Device group servers: dg-schost-1  phys-schost-1  phys-schost-2
[Become superuser.]
[Remove the hostname from the disk device group:]
# metaset -s dg-schost-1 -d -h phys-schost-2
[Verify removal of the node:]
phys-suncluster-1% scconf -pv |grep
