2.4.1 Initializing from a UNIX Server

Use the initialization commands when initializing from a UNIX server.
The initialization commands initializes the disk, which is used for data transfers between the UNIX server and UNIX/IA server, to a data transfer volume exclusively for XL-DATA/MV.
Volumes that are not initialized with the initialization commands cannot transfer data.
When performing data transfers between a Solaris server and different UNIX servers, implementing the initialization command from the Solaris server side is recommended.

The following three types of initialization commands are provided:

Command Name	Overview
mftfdvini	Initializes a volume as a data transfer volume.
mftfdvadd	Adds the client or server information to the data transfer volume.
mftfdvalt	Modifies configured client or server information of a data transfer volume.
