QuestionQ3

Storage Management

The storage team has just presented a new LUN to your AIX LPAR.

Which command configures the new disk as a physical volume so that it can be used by AIX LVM?

  • A sasraidmgr
  • B pvcreate
  • C cfgmgr
  • D mkvg
Explanation

cfgmgr runs the AIX Configuration Manager, which detects and configures newly connected storage devices such as a newly presented LUN. The disk must be recognized and configured by AIX before it can be prepared for use by Logical Volume Manager; creating a volume group is a later LVM operation. IBM documents cfgmgr as the command used to detect and configure a newly connected disk.
