Labeling large number of LUNs in Solaris

Posted on March 29th, 2010

You have added number of luns for use with VxVM, so you need to place a VTOC on every new disk.

# cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_dev
# vxdisk scandisks new

First command force Solaris to discover new FC devices. Second informs VxVM that new disks has appear.

# echo label > /tmp/cmd.txt
# echo quit >> /tmp/cmd.txt
# for i in `ls /dev/rdsk/*s2*`; do format -f /tmp/cmd.txt $i; done
