If it's the Sun product, now owned by Oracle, a websearch tells me that this is a link to the administrator's guide (PDF).

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19668-01/...75-3890-10.pdf

I downloaded it; the link works.

Man pages will not be installed or loaded with VxVM. You should better follow some Veritas command reference guide like here.

Moreover, you can use:
Code:
~$ <command> -help

VXVM commands

What the **** are you doing behind a MULTI Million dollar system and you can not take basic commands on it.

Who was your instructor in school, or JOB on TRAINING. JEeesuz. Don't touch it if you can not know JAVA, C, C++. You are not certified to do a single task on that system.

Go and atleast get certified or educate you to have MASTERSDEGREE, for this education in Sun Solaris will take a long and you are not paying me the money and i am not going to spend here trying to educate you on the basics. Even if i do. You need to pass my exam and you can read up materials that i will give you but you will ignore all info for you are SBK.

I hope that you take my advice. Save the company money and let a professional take over.

That job is not yours, you would not be here asking for answers. We can go south , east, north and some and still you will sit with a /.. blinking..

You are not allowed to use such language here. Anybody can ask question if he is facing problem with his set up. If you don't want to reply just don't reply. But if you want to reply, be in your limits.

Please note that the Volume Manager man pages are all installed here :




# pwd
/opt/VRTS/man
# ls -l
total 110
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Jun 11 2011 cat1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 6656 Nov 21 17:17 cat1m

drwxr-xr-x 2 bin bin 512 Mar 23 2012 man7
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29601 Jan 19 2009 windex




What this means is that you will have to set your $MANPATH to include this ....


# echo $MANPATH
:/opt/VRTS/man:/usr/man





-- hope that helps
