group:
# varyonvg volume-group-name
• After you replace an HBA, any paths that go through that HBA might be
removed (due to AIX specifications) from the paths to a specified boot
disk hdisk (logical device file), which will no longer be recognized as the
boot disk. If this happens, it is necessary to restart the host, and then re-
specify the path that goes through the replaced HBA as a path to the boot
disk, as shown in the procedure below.
To re-specify a device called hdisk10 on the storage system as a boot
disk:
a Execute the following command to restart the host:
.
# shutdown -Fr
b Make sure that the boot disk is in a multi-path configuration:
.
# lspath -l hdisk10 -s available
Available hdisk10 fscsi0
Available hdisk10 fscsi1
...
c Check the current boot disk list:
.
# bootlist -m normal -o
hdisk10 blv=hd5
hdisk0 blv=hd5
hdisk1 blv=hd5
...
d Specify boot disks that are suitable for your host environment:
.
# bootlist -m normal hdisk10 hdisk0 hdisk1
e Make sure that the number of configured boot disks is the same as
.
the number of paths that you checked in step 2:
# bootlist -m normal -o
hdisk10 blv=hd5
hdisk10 blv=hd5
hdisk0 blv=hd5
hdisk1 blv=hd5
