DESCRIPTION

This command changes the allocation of virtual disks.

This command can be used to change the virtual target to which the virtual disk is allocated, or to allocate the virtual disk to additional virtual targets, or to change the virtual host LUN.

Allocations cannot be changed for virtual disks that have not been allocated to virtual targets.

Execute this command as the administrator for the operating system (that is, with “Administrator” or “root” privileges).

OPTIONS

-v virtual-disk-name: Specify the name of the virtual disk to be allocated to the virtual target.

-t virtual-target-name1[,virtual-target-name2[,...]]: Specify the name of the virtual target to which the virtual disk will be allocated.

-l virtual-host-lun: Specify the virtual host LUN for the virtual disk to be allocated to the virtual target, using decimal notation.

-h: Indicates how to use the command.

EXAMPLES

Allocating a virtual disk (VDISK) that has been allocated to virtual target “VT001” to a different virtual target (VT002). In this example, the virtual host LUN is 2.

# /opt/FJSVssmgr/sbin/vscmcmd modifyvd -v VDISK -t VT002 -l 2
Command terminated normally.

EXIT STATUS

0: Changing the allocation for the virtual disk has terminated normally.

1: Changing the allocation for the virtual disk has terminated abnormally.
