Moving Objects Between Dynamic Disk Groups

The following procedure moves a self-contained set of VxVM VEA objects between imported dynamic disk groups. This operation is performed on VxVM VEA objects such as disks or top-level volumes, and includes all component objects such as sub-volumes, plexes and subdisks.

 
   To perform a dynamic disk group move operation:

  1. Right-click on the dynamic disk group to be moved.
  2. Select Move Dynamic Disk Groups.
  3. Complete the Move Dynamic Disk Group Dialog Box as follows:

    Disk Group Name:

    Enter the name of the dynamic disk group from which objects are to be moved or click Browse to select the dynamic disk group.


    Target Disk Group Name:

    Enter the name of the dynamic disk group into which objects are to be moved.


    Select Objects to move:

    Enter the objects to be moved.


    Expand:

    Click Expand to specify that the objects to be moved should include all other disks that contain subdisks that are associated with the specified objects or with objects that they contain. For example, if you specify that disk01 should be moved and disk01 contains vol1 which is also located on disk02, then by using the Expand button, you ensure that disk02 will also be moved.


    Show Dependencies:

    Click Show Dependencies to display the objects affected by the move.
