Varying Disk Volumes Online or Offline


Task Required Privilege Class
Vary a disk volume online or offline System or operator

To perform maintenance on a disk volume or to upgrade disk hardware, you can vary a disk volume offline. For example, to vary the disk volume named STGVOL.POOL001 offline, enter:

vary offline stgvol.pool001

If the server encounters a problem with a disk volume, the server automatically varies the volume offline.

You can make the disk volume available to the server again by varying the volume online. For example, to make the disk volume named STGVOL.POOL001 available to the server, enter:

vary online stgvol.pool001
