5–70CLI Commands

MIRROR

Creates a one-member mirrorset from a single disk. This command is used only on disks configured as units or members of a stripeset. Enter the ADD MIRRORSET command to create a mirrorset from disk drives not already members of higher level containers.

After the disk drive is converted to a mirrorset, increase the nominal number of members by entering the SET mirrorset-nameMEMBERSHIP=number-of-memberscommand, then enter the SET mirrorset-nameREPLACE=disk-namecommand to add more members to the mirrorset.

NOTE: This command is also valid for a REMOTE disk, resulting in a single member mirrorset with DT_SUPPORT enabled.

Syntax

MIRROR disk-name mirrorset-name

Parameters

disk-name

Specifies the name of the disk to convert to a one-member mirrorset. The disk must be part of a unit.

mirrorset-name

Assigns a name for the mirrorset.

IMPORTANT: It is common to name a mirrorset MIRRn, where n is a sequentially assigned, unique identifier. Other naming conventions are acceptable, but this naming convention presents to the user both the type of container and its unique identifier.
