Creating Initial State Database Replicas in the md.tab File

This example shows how to set up an initial state database on a server with three disks.

#
# (state database and replicas)
#
mddb01 -c 3 c0t1d0s0 c0t2d0s0 c0t3d0s0

This file entry creates three state database replicas on each of the three slices. mddb01 identifies the metadevice state database. -c 3 specifies that three state database replicas are placed on each slice. The metadb(1M) command activates this entry in the /ect/lvm/md.tab file.
